Also, the movie, not the series

The animation style’s not really my cup of tea, but I do like the writing and the characters. I could definitely see this being a future Forgotten Gems article! Maybe not the next one (I have a few ideas lined up), but I’ll add it to the list 🙂

This was one of those animations that when I saw it, I was floored. There is a tangible emotion in this, seemingly simplistic, animation. I even remember getting a bit choked up on my first watch. It still holds up today. Which is just a sign that you don’t need the most advanced technology, or highest budget, to tell a great story that affects people.

I know it is a MOD DVD, yet I feel like this short would have been a great supplementary special feature for that movie.
