n my opinion it was a great movie with some interesting elements, even though having some plot holes and the ending probably was just too messy and crammed together, but still fun to watch and not your casual movie that is similar to all other ones.

not a story, not a revelation. only suggestions, colors and a nice feel. enough for see it. because all is nice and clean and familiar, the wake up scene or the shower scene are good points who convince the viewer, the snow and the mother car are the right ingredient for use imagination for a complete story. so, a nice film. at first sigh only a sketch. but it is the perfect start point for discover a real good director.

I do not want to spoil anything for all you guys out there, never-the-less what an intoxicating tale. The set-up: two handsome easy going boys playing, giggling and tickling, the very erotic shower scene, and the snow fight -- and then BAM a twist to end all homo erotic twists, and I must say at first impact my head was unnerved and then -- once I thought about it again --- really thought about it with my other head. I was all ... "Opps. Oh. No. I shouldn't be getting excited by this. Down boy. Down."See it, it's on Boy Briefs 3, which is the best of the series I believe. There is not a bad film among the eight presented, And Between Boys is just plain all-American woody provoking.Jake Yuzna, you rock!

This little jewel of a short film demonstrates that Director Jake Yuzna is capable of a project of much greater scope. He works masterfully within the limits of this genre, instantly setting a tone with images of a stark Midwestern winter day, visually echoed with clean interior shots, all beautifully filmed with a fine still photographer's sensibilities. A charged and complex relationship between two young men is unveiled quickly, almost wordlessly, in glimpses, their energy accentuated in contrast to the cool settings which frame them. The film does not so much tell a story as paint in a few deft strokes a picture of a relationship potent with possibilities. My harshest criticism is also my highest compliment: I wanted more.
