Well, just watched the video and, for a short film to get a message across, I think it does the job very well. Whilst watching it, I was thinking “Yeah right, that sort of behaviour would never be allowed in an office” Which, as it turned out, was exactly the point!
It was never meant to be a full documentary on homophobia. Given the time restraints of a short message, how could they have done this any better? I think it´s good.
OK, I’m willing to admit I wan’t convinced by the description on the earlier reports, I couldn’t see how a lout shouting homophobic abuse would be anything other than preaching to the converted, but within context the random vitriol and bile he displays and the reactions of those around him minding their own business make him thoroughly unlikeable to anyone but hardcore homophobes.
I’m willing to say perhaps they should have gone ahead with it.

I agree. This film should be shown… and SOON.
