Blink productions "Offline dating" (2015) 6:00 (UK)

BAFTA-nominated director Samuel Abrahams created this charming film for Blink, starring his friend Tom. It centers around Tom's decision to (Gasp!) try and meet someone offline. Tom comes across as being charming, sincere and desperate all at once. This certainly demonstrates Blink's strong production values and the color grading is fantastic. The subject matter is a bit goofy but if I've learned anything from this film it's this: With the exception of the Shoreditch girl who looks like she was on her way to the next adidas Originals shoot, the moral of the story is, if you want to meet someone offline in London, go for a foreigner, as they're more open to life's possibilities.

Where to begin?

As endearing as this film is attempting to be, try getting a date when you're not stylish, tall, handsome and sound like Hugh Grant in Four Weddings and a Funeral. No really, try it Tom. This is why I've dropped out entirely from the dating scene and intend to wait it out for the fuckable robots. It's a cute film, but it doesn't really scratch the surface of how hard it is to find someone in London. The last girl I kissed was some random British Airways Flight Hostess who was completely drunk and never texted me back the next day. That was something like 6 months ago. Try that, Tom. Try that with a side of fucking misery.
