"...que no solo fue el corto mas corto de la noche con su duracion de 10 minutos, es que ademas fue EL MEJOR, con su protagonista una especie de Steve Carell moreno..."

"Le comédien Pardis Parker est à la fois devant et derrière la caméra d’un court-métrage (qu’il a produit, écrit et réalisé) muet et très visuel à la fois émouvant et amusant."

"C'est une jolie petite boule d'amour sucrée et romantique. A noter que le court a récolté une palanquée de prix dans de très nombreux festivals, ce qui prouve, une fois encore, que quand une histoire d'amour est joliment écrite et réalisée, elle plait à tout le monde."

"This was really cute, acting was really good, the music soundtrack was just perfect…and did I mention the colours and visual imagery?"

"I loved the unique office setting splashed with pastel colors that echoes the seemingly endless optimism of Alex, the film's protagonist."

"Pardis Parker wrote, directed and produced this short silent movie, and it's being shown Thursday at the Chinese Theatre in Hollywood."

"I've always loved making people laugh without saying anything, even when I'm on stage doing stand-up. It's such a fun challenge."

"You’ll smile and be inspired by his charm. It’s a simple love in the purest form."

"It’s a small marvel of sweetness, emotion, visual comedy, and it’s all done with no language. I highly recommend it."

"Pardis Parker’s The Dance is Romance at its Sweetest."

"It’s about a guy who loves a girl, but who makes the classic mistake of trying to be what he thinks she wants him to be instead of just being himself."

"The Carmel Film Festival in California has added the film to its Best of Shorts program, from which Hollywood icon Clint Eastwood selects the festival's best film each year."

"His award-magnet short Afghan is still garnering attention on the US film festival circuit, and a video he shot for Halifax band MIR took home the jury award for Best Music Video at the recent Rincon International Film Festival in Puerto Rico."

"Parker's two previous short films have picked up awards at festivals in Canada and the United States over the last couple of years."
