“Delivery Boy” Movie Review

When it comes to BL dramas, more isn’t always better. So many dramas would be so much more entertaining if they were half the size. But then you have those bite-sized little nuggets of joy, like the short film Delivery Boy and suddenly I want twenty full-length episodes.

Released in 2019 this BL short from Hong Kong was screened in more than twenty five film festivals around the world, including San Francisco’s Frameline and the Iris Prize in Wales.

Cheuk Piu “Champi” Lo stars as adorable delivery boy Chun Ho, who falls in love with Eric (Phillip Smith), an ex-pat businessman living in Hong Kong. But cultural differences and the class gap that separates them make romance difficult. But, luckily good sense prevails and by the time the fifteen-minute film comes to an end, the characters are on their way to a happy ending.

Directed by Hugo Kenzo with a soundtrack that features Donna Summer’s “Last Dance” Delivery Boy is short and sweet and not to be missed.

You can watch the film via Gagaoolala or on Kenzo’s official YouTube page below.
