A masterful minor exercise in telling a story with a twist and an equally masterful exercise in the dramatic use of what's known as a Steadycam, a camera with flowing motion. The car journey with one lover too many gets completely out of hand. And after the twist, another one follows. Cleverly filmed.

談“夏午”
很多人好奇地問我,完成短片“呼吸”後,為什麼不拍長片而選擇再拍短片。其實那個導演會不想拍長片?從年輕的時候我一直就想拍長片,接受這個挑戰,只是苦無適合的機會。在“呼吸”後,我就開始籌備兩個長片計劃。一部是“台北星期天”,另一部是“Lonely Together”。籌備過程讓我覺得拍長片不能勉強。每個片子有它自己的時間。籌備長片計劃的過程也讓我不斷反思自己是不是己經準備好拍長片?雖然“呼吸”反應很好,入圍坎城影展,拿了些獎, 但這就代表我已經準備好拍攝一部長片嗎?我心裡還是不很踏實;我仍然覺得我是幸運的,或是只是時機好。
我必須拍另一部短片再度挑戰自己和磨練自己。
