Michael Biehn reacts to seeing Two Strangers Who Meet Five Times
I came across this Q&A moment when legendary actor Michael Biehn (cult actor in James Cameron movies Terminator and Aliens, among others) refers to seeing my short film "Two Strangers Who Meet Five Times". I played this back to my family, in London, and we all shrieked with joy when he recalled the moment. For me, the joy of filmmaking is connecting to other people. And this was a very special thing to see because in the 80s, my friends at school would regularly watch Terminator on a loop. If I could have my own time machine, I would love to visit my 16-year old self back then, and tell him this moment from the future would happen. I simply would not believe it or understand.

Anatomy of a Scene with Marcus Markou and Martin Law
Переглядів 7142 роки тому
Martin Law interviews filmmaker Marcus Markou about the techniques and methods indie filmmakers can use to cover a scene quickly (and therefore cost-effectively) without compromising on the quality of the work. In this scene, Marcus talks about shooting handheld and off the shoulder to cover an intensive 6-7 minute scene from his latest feature film, "The Wife and Her Househusband" starring act...

Amazing
Awesome film👍❤️
How can this be SO good?
Am a grown man😤😔
That was absolutely amazing.
i hate things like these, sometimes you meet people and then just passby/through them and someday your paths may cross again. and if fate may have it, a small interaction may cause ripples in both your lives be it better or worse. i just always hope that the next time two strangers meet its always better than when they last saw each other.
what a stunning film,I loved this
Those kids seemed way too old to be playing in a sandbox in that way and speaking like toddlers.
WoW. Really enjoyed this. Well done.
Great and heartbreaking !!! Thank you for sharing.
Thank you, thank you so much for creating art, for you certainly are that.
Thank you too!
@@marcusmarkou my pleasure!
Best and realistic to life I have seen in years . Always a pleasure to watch
Poignant and surprising. Congratulations. Should win an award.
What a lovely film. I had tears…❤
Beautiful
wow this is amazing
A lovely movie. Thank you from a Greek Fan.
Thank you, Marcus
Shishh... Thats good
I saw this a few years ago, thought it was good, but it came up again (met it the second time) and I have tears rolling down my face this time at the poetry and spirit in which this film was made. I will add I am more content than I was a few years ago, the 'first time' and that feels relevant when I contrast my reactions.
Hi Brian, that's a lovely message to read. I feel very lucky to have made it. Sometimes, we are able to tap into something that is bigger than us and you (as the writer) are fortunate enough to be the "carrier" of the idea. I feel this is the case with this short film. It's such a privilege to be interacting with people who watch this, so many years later, in this way.
❤
Shirley from Alberta…💜💕👩🏼great casting, I loved the sequence being out of order…everything you chose was stellar!! Great life lesson!
What a great piece of film. Made me feel really emotional 👏
Thank you!
beautiful story <3
Gotta say, this has to be the best short I've seen. Well done.
Thanks. So glad it's still reaching people
Simply beautiful.
I showed this movie with my class an it was really beautiful story. All come back in the live
Thank you. Sending the class my best, Marcus
Beautiful Man❤ Amazing....Love from India ❤
I don't know why but in the end , my ears were filled with tears , when Alistair asked Aziz ' Do I Know you' and Aziz replied with his eyes and smile, ' Yes , and I know you too'. I heard somewhere ' We don't meet accidentally, everything is planned, for a greater cause' , The only thing I didn't understand what's that cause.
The cause is love...
Brilliant
Brilliant film x
What an incredible, inspiring and truly powerful film. Great message of forgiveness and love. Whatever you do, comes back to you. Cause and effect. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you, that is a very kind comment. Marcus
My English teacher gave us a series of videos to choose from and make a work. Among them, this one was the first one I saw and the truth is that it shocked me so much that I think I'll do the work of this video, is a master piece.
Thanks, filmmaker here. You made a great choice!
I have seen hundreds of short films, If you get a chance I highly recommend watching this. Its absolutely brilliant!
Thanks!
This shows us the consequences of our good and not so good acts - perfectly executed. Thank you so much.🥰
my God this made me sob
I am crying
Its very beautiful ❤
Thank you, Marcus

Absolutely touching film, i come back every few months and it never fails to move me
Thank you! Marcus
This is absolutely great. It shows how one bad act or one good act can destroy you or save you in your life. Focused on money, focus on growth but most importantly always audit your actions. Do good deeds and you will be rewarded
I cry **every** single time. Amazing 👏
Me too! And joy at the end❤
Thanks for your comment! Marcus
I cried so hardddd😭❤..
Great video
Heart touching movie
Beautiful! x
Loved it !
I can't believe it was only 12 minutes! So much happened and so many emotions later. It felt like a whole movie! Lovely work 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
