The Date (1999)
6/10
A nice idea--a bummer of a punchline
7 February 2008
Warning: Spoilers
This is a cute little short Australian film about a young man and woman who are planning on having sex while her parents are away on holiday. However, before they leave, the father mentions (in a very crude way) that if ANYONE touches his daughter, they will....um...have a certain part of their anatomy removed!

Later that evening, the young couple have sex and use one of her father's condoms. However, the boy is very concerned that they replace the exact condom because he's terrified of the father--and rightfully so. However, replacing it is not as easy as you'd think and the guy is forced to search high and low and use great ingenuity to find the exact match.

This leads to a conclusion that was supposed to be funny, but the punchline just didn't work--as it provided a bit of a downer at the end instead. Still, it was rather entertaining and is worth a viewing.
