How to cope with rejection

Is a Scotish short film, which tells the story of a man who tires to win his ex grilfriend back by getting a Nija to beat up her new boyfriend. The short film was produced by channel 4 ideasfactroy back in 2005.

In the opening of the short film you see a number of pictures showing the main character and his ex girlfirend. From these shots you think that the main character is missing his ex girlfriend, this is shown with the next shot showing the main charcter knocking on this ex's door. When you look at the main character you see that he looks childish with scurffy blond hair wearing a grey hoodie with a bright yellow T-Shrit with a big picture of a teddy bear. After i nocticed this i began to think, was this the reason she left him in the first place. This is summed up, when the main character resorts to hiring a Nija to beat up his ex girlfriends new boyfirend.

Overall i really enjoyed the film, i felt that the film tock a very depressing subject and showed the funny side of what you could do if you wanted. I also liked the way that the main character who is played by chris Waitt is also the director of the short film. I feel the main reason the film works well is the length, i feel that the film is just the right length and it allows the audience to relate with the main charcter. I like the way the film has been written as it doesnt dwel of certian scenes and allows the audience to relate and get on the main characters side.
