The Most Beautiful Thing - Short Film by Cameron Covell

This is a short film based on two high school students Brandon and Emily. The two characters happen to help the view realize what is the most important thing in life. Brandon seem to be a loner I the film as it starts with him alone and not able to connect with other students. He is alienated by the entire school and this seems to distract him a lot and when he goes home he is faced by the same experience since he never seems to meet up with his parents. This greatly impacts his social life and the only person he seems to want to associate with seems to not realize he even exists (Cameron, 2012). At one point they meet up in the hall way Brandon makes a move to say great the lady but she passes him as if not hearing hi.

The next time they meet its at a bench Brandon seats alone and read and this time he greats her again and gets the same response but this time he persists and greats her again. The second time the lady realizes and responds back letting him now that she can hardly speak and cannot hear. She rights down her name as Emily and they already seem to be getting along. This is evident as we see them having the same ideas. The following day coincidentally they all show up with note books to write down their communication which is such a sweet and romantic coincidence, this gets the viewer all emotional (Cameron, 2012). Its so romantic to find such romance in the air. There lifes change and they start hanging out a lot and with prom around the corner they seem to be on the same page but Brandon is confused on how to ask Emily out.

At some point Brandon inquires if Emily has ever tried to speak and this question gets her quite emotional and then things start changing, the following day another guy comes along and starts forcing himself to Emily but Brandon does not seem to realize this. It gets him outraged and he starts avoiding her. This issue drags him down and he is unable to move away from the situation but fortunately Emily approaches the situation and explains all this to him. He finally asks her for prom and the love story is back on track. The most beautiful things in life do not need words to express them and neither does one need to see them, they are those things in within the heart that no words can express those emotions that fulfill you.

After watching the film, one is reconnected with love feelings and what it means and what it felt to fall in love. The actors have managed to tap into their emotions so amazingly and managed to get the viewers connected to the film emotionally as well (Reith, 2017). No one in the entire movie realizes the actors as per the script but this does not disturb them at all. They are completely satisfied with the feelings towards each other. Brandon goes to the point of learning how to use sign languages so as to communicate with Emily which is so sweet from a relationship perspective. The theme on love has clearly been portrayed and this is the most beautiful things to see as well as feel. Love cant be explained clearly but after watching the short film it clearly gives the viewers a clear idea of what love can be (Norwood, 2016). The clip is worth watching over and over and I would comfortable refer another person to watch it. It has this lovely message on what can be defined as a beautiful thing among people.
