The Goodbye Plane (2003)
Absolutely excellent!

Really warm and moving film about loss and grief and love. Beautifully acted by classic British actors Edward Hardwicke and Dudley Sutton, the story shows a world war two fighter pilot haunted by a love affair that ended during the war. The more recent loss of a ballet dancer friend reminds the old man of the earlier loss, and he must learn how to accept things and move on. Hardwicke and Sutton play off each other superbly. Really nicely acted around a fabulous script, there is a blinding second world war battle sequence during a really balletic flashback sequence, beautifully scored by the composer, and amazingly well directed. One of the best shorts I've ever seen.
