In this film, two people are the main characters. The story takes place in a train with the man's speech and the woman's reaction. The man looks suspicious at first, and other people laugh at his speech. In contrast, the woman takes it seriously. At this point, her facial expression shows her change of mind. In this film, she does not speak. Instead of that, her face is often focused on expressing how she thinks about the man's words. The angle of each character is interesting. While the man is speaking, the camera shoot not only the man but also other people as it shows that the man is speaking to everyone in the train. On the other hand, the woman is on screen only with her eyes straight at the man to show how serious she listens to him.

I will wait for the next one is a short film and the leading character is a woman who has no dialogue. When she arrives at the station and goes down on the escalator, her gaze is drawn to a couple. She looks sad and bored by her day-to-day life. On the train, a man suddenly introduces himself and speaks out that he is looking for a lady who can share true love with him and then asks passengers to get off at the next station if interested. She gets curious.... While I think this film is flawless in its technical aspects, after I watched it, I felt really frustrated about the narrative. Contrary to the man, the woman doesn't say anything and only has facial expressions, but I can image her romantic background for some reason such as marital status in the past. I am curious about what happens next for the woman and the man and the situation on the train. I think this film is worth watching.

I'll Wait for the Next One sets itself up as a cute little comedy skit, and it delivers on that premise but also surprises you with an incredibly moving finale. Four minute comedies are not supposed to be as moving as this film is, it's funny, charming, and heartbreaking all at the same time, showing you your emotions in a combination that they are not generally found. I can't recommend this movie enough. By the end of the diminutive film you feel like you have known the characters for years, especially the lead man and the woman looking for love, probably because they so perfectly represent.

The look on the man's face and the woman's face at the end of the film are brief moments of sheer performing brilliance rarely seen, especially in a short film, which itself is rarely seen. Seek this one out, you will laugh and you will cry, and most of all you will be moved.

Oh, this broke my heart! The filmmaker showed such skill as he told the story of the woman on the train with no words whatsoever. The actress was great. She just really brought to life her loneliness, from her buck teeth to her terrible scarf. She was just trying so hard. This was super-great. Except it was a bit devastating in the end...

The whole scenes of this film is take place at the train. One man gathers the attention by other passengers because he give a speech with loud voice to search the female who can share his romantic ideas. Most of people are laghed by his romantic idea but one lonely woman is moved by his word. This is very good way to make the short film I think. In other words, the director of this film is good to use time. I can not believe that this short film takes only about 4 minutes. It was really impressed story to me. In addition, there are some words that I can not understand in the film but from the act of characters, I can understand the story easily. Many people would enjoy this short film. If you have a spare time, you should watch this short film and do not miss the last scene of the film.

Quite literally an emotional ride, "I'll Wait for the Next One" offers the promise of a fateful encounter only to be challenged abruptly by a surprise ending. The surprise works because our feelings are channeled through the eyes of the woman, whom in becoming the dupe of the male perpetrator forces viewers along to share in her struggle. The film thus raises many questions regarding the nature of the conflict it depicts: why is it not surprising that the man is the perpetrator and the woman is the dupe? Why are we drawn to believe the man's story, and what does his final action reveal about the nature of men as societal beings? Is the ending a fault of the woman or of the man? If the woman is at fault, do women need to just be more careful in an overtly oppressive society? Or if the man is at fault, does he need to be more considerate of the extent to which his actions inflict damage upon society? The depiction is that both the woman and the man are at the extreme ends of their respective depths of capacity for emotional sentiment, and it is a very crude depiction that does little to progress away from the repression inherent to patriarchal societies. However, the responsibility to answer the questions posed by the film lies in the viewer, and as a result so too does the responsibility to make any changes in the real world away from what we see on screen.

"I'll Wait For The Next One" is a French short comedy drama film. It was made in 2002. A woman walks to the station with a lonely expression. When she gets on the train, a man also gets on it to introduce himself and says that he is looking for love to passengers in a loud voice. The woman has a puzzled look at first, but she comes to be interested in what he says and sympathize with his view of love. It is a story with a surprise ending. The title implies that the women waits for her destiny and I think she is so bored in her daily life so that she wants to believe the one and fate. However, I suppose the man makes fun of the women who are looking for partners seriously and I don't think it is a funny joke. I sympathized with her in the film. Furthermore, I have empathic embarrassment to watch this film. I believe people who care what other people think much would feel this embarrassment. I think the film is worth watching because it gives the audience the lesson that there some things are too good to be true.

'I'll wait for the next one' (J'attendrai le suivant) is a French short dark comedy film that is just four and a half minutes long. The story starts with a single woman looking enviously at a couple. As she takes the underground, a man suddenly starts to speak in front of the passengers and asks single women to get off the train if they are interested in marrying him. Despite the woman's lack of dialogue throughout the film, her emotions and thoughts are effectively conveyed through her facial expressions and gaze. This absence of spoken words adds depth to the story, allowing the audience to empathize with her situation. Setting the film in the metro is also great as it emphasises her lonely aura. Although this is a short film, it has a punchline and is very satisfying.

A lonely woman who greatly longs for true love meets a stranger at the metro in Paris. He asks single women in the metro who has the same way of thinking of love for getting off at the next station. Then…what becomes of her love, getting off or not?

Even though the film is about 4 minutes long, this leaves us emotion sympathized with her. Interestingly, the single lady is a main character, not the man who tries to attract the single women in the train. However, she mentions none of the words, which means her feelings are expressed visually. In particular, at the beginning of the film, she bears watching a couple on the escalator. This shows us that she seeks for love. The technique is highly respected.

The ending of this film is beyond expectation and makes audience feel to follow the story more.

A lonely woman goes on about her life until one day, the ride on her usual train takes an unexpected turn, changing her life in the mere span of a few minutes.

It's a well-crafted short, from start to finish. The actress does a magnificient job showing the sad, lonely side of the character, which makes the audience take a liking on her earlier in the short. There's humour in it too, and the cadence of the dialogue makes the audience follow the slow but steady flow of the plot.

The simplicity and familiarity of the setting (coming home from work, getting on the train to share your personal space with strangers for as long as the ride lasts) adds to showing how easily events in the short could happen in real life. How humans can be cruel without meaning to, and how they can also be very naive when hope is an option.

The naiveness of the woman, her hope to finally stop feeling lonely, is what gives this short that special touch.

A lonely woman boards a subway. Before it begins to move, a man gets on board and begins to pontificate about his quest for a woman. He says he is alone and the passengers begin to respond to his little presentation. The woman has a pretty face that shows so much emotion She is lonely too. What are our expectations? I don't know the actress, but she does more with her expressions that some would do in a full length movie (this is but four minutes). What a marvelous little film; it's like a sad poem.

"I'll Wait for the Next One" is a French short film about a woman who searches for true love. She meets a stranger in the subway in Paris. On the train, the man suddenly introduces himself and says that he is looking for a lady who can share true love with him. He asks passengers to get off at the next station if they are interested in him. The main character looks lonely and hankers after love. I feel sympathy for her and it is sad to imagine her feeling at the end of the movie because it has a grievous punch line. The narrative is well-paced and well formed. The main character does not speak at all in the film, but the facial expressions and background music tell us the characters' emotions, so it is easy to understand the movie. I think this is a great short, but I do not recommend this film to people who lead a lonely life because you may become sad.

This short film is really good. It is about a woman who is in the train and a man who takes it and starts talking out loud asking for a woman to love him. Then, the woman starts to get interested in what the man is saying and she takes the chance to find her love. Even though this film is really short, the story is really well told and you can experiment a lot of feelings that the characters transmit really well, especially the woman, who I think that is the best character.

First of all, I will talk about the character of the woman. As I said before, I think that she is the best character of the film. As you see her story in the train, you can feel a lot of sensations. Everything she is thinking of and feeling, you can feel or think too, joy, awkwardness, loneliness, sadness.... For me, this is how a good character is built, she has to make the audience feel things and I really think that she did that very well.

Having such a good story condensed in a very short film is a very good aspect. There are a lot of characters whose stories seem to be really clear. You can imagine more or less who they are and how their lives are just by their actions or what they say. Also I think that the end of the film is pretty realistic in contrast to what happened inside of the train, where everyone lives in their own world imagining their new lives.

The short movie takes place in an underground train in France. A man enters the crowded train and starts talking loudly to catch the attention of the people. Claiming that he's not doing anything for money, he starts explaining how he is looking for love and starts explaining his own conception of love. During all this time, the majority of the people in the train is listening to the man and especially a woman, who seems to be around 40 years old and who seems to be really hooked by the man's words about love. An interesting aspect of the movie is the emphasis on visual story telling. Indeed, nothing is said or written about the woman's background, but the way she stares at the man implies maybe some kind of loneliness in her life or some kind of admiration. The emphasis put on the woman's gaze is a powerful tool used by the screenwriter to make the viewer think about her background. In addition, putting personal issues and questions through a simple and daily life scene is a proof of a good screenwriting and enables the viewers to share feelings more easily with the characters. The whole movie and especially the end will really make you think about human relationships in a general perspective and that is why I would recommend you to watch it !

The story starts with the heavy and slow step of woman who is seemingly returning home by metro. She seems to be bored, indifferent, or even unhappy and we assume that she is not satisfied with her life at this point. The moment there appears a strange man starting a speech to call for someone who will be dating with him in front of various passengers on metro, we easily assume that there will be a romance between these two at the end of the story. I do not say the guy seems to be a man of destiny for her at this point, because his appearance is kind of so-so, what he is talking is just like a man who has been single for a long time... In other words, he is not attractive type of person for many of audiences. However, the more selling points he speaks in succession, the larger smile the woman makes on her face. Now we can say that he is the one for her! But we should be aware of the time limit as well. He is a passerby, and therefore she should be hurry if she wants to take this chance. You should watch the end of her story with your own eyes.

J'attendrai Le Suivant, a short movie directed by Philippe Orreindy, tells the story of a man who enters a subway car and, asking for everyone's attention, claims to be in search of true love. One of the women in the car seems to be interested in what he is saying, but then a plot twist results in an unexpected ending. Regarding the editing, it is interesting how the camera follows the woman before she enters the subway car. The sequence of shots of her face and feet give the feeling that she is walking towards something. When she is going downstairs, she stares at a couple kissing, so we can infer that she was thinking about love, relationship matters, which are the main topic of the man's speech. Moreover, when the man is speaking, close ups of the woman's smiling face keep appearing. Thus, it gives the impression that the man and the woman are somehow connected, which makes the unexpected ending even more shocking. Finally, the dialog between the man and another man who suggests that he would give him his wife's phone number, since she is only after money, and the man's answer - that he is looking for real love, and not a match, makes his speech sounds more sincere. In only 4 minutes, this film manages to catch the viewers' attention, make them create expectations, and then break the expectations through a plot twist.
