Tones: dark, darkly comic, humorous, tense
Two best friends plot the ultimate act of revenge after discovering one's famous husband has been unfaithful, debating the perfect devastating tweet to send from his account — but the seemingly witty conversation conceals a far more insidious plan.

Two-hander about crafting the perfect cancel-culture tweet as revenge weapon — title is the right energy and the constraint is sharp. Could be a real one if the twist actually devastates.
Beale's tweet-as-weapon two-hander turns cancel-culture mechanics into chamber thriller, in the God of Carnage register but compressed. Comments turned off and modest view counts suggest a deliberately limited release.
10:59 two-hander structured entirely around crafting a single revenge tweet — that's exactly the kind of contained-conceit thriller where the dialogue rhythm has to do all the work, and Fiona Button and Leila Farzad as the two friends is solid UK theatre-trained casting. Comments disabled and only 1,858 views, so I'm trusting the premise more than the response.
Reviews
Other than wanting more (which, as always, is a good thing), this is perfect short filmmaking.
A masterclass in how to whip up something bold and unforgettable using just a few carefully chosen ingredients.
