LOL! No, not really. But really nice nonetheless, Michael. Very solid performances. It's not easy to film in NYC in the Christmas season. Did you guys shoot really late at night? Not that that would have made a big difference in the city that never sleeps.
My early Christmas short story, "Coming Home," is also very dark. It's been done in every format EXCEPT film -- print, stage, podcast -- although the books were optioned. Always fun.
Glad you liked it :-) Actually I don't think ANY of it was shot in NYC. Some of it's stock, but the whole long section apparently in Bryant Park is green screen!
I really love this short. They’re both so great in it, and I’ve got a soft spot for this story.
Here you go, here’s my Christmas story. About a thousand words long, wrote it for my mum’s Dutch partner back in 2013 when I was skint and couldn’t buy presents for Christmas.
Brilliant! Wonderfully written, acted and the soundtrack took the story to another level. Dark and joy-stealing! We were warned! 😄 Not to worry, I shall go and watch Albert Finney in Scrooge to counteract it. 🎶 Thank you very much, thank you very much 🎶
I feel like I've been hit in the gut with a cricket bat - something I've grown familiar with from a lot of your books. I need to watch a few more times to let it fully sink in, but I wanted to say thank you for this. It's meaning for me is beyond my current capacity for words.

Wow. I *love* that. Utterly charming, and I mean that in the best of ways.
That’s twice you’ve liked my short stories, man. One more and I’ve got myself a hat trick.

Ho ho holy crap, that was dark. But so well done!
:-) Fabien did a great job
"enter password, LIKE THE EARLY SETTLERS". OMG. Stealing that.

Thank you for watching — and I'm really pleased to hear it landed with you!
Not watched yet, just wanted to ask if I would have read the story?
Is it called Unbelief?
Yes, that's the story...
