2012 Oscar Nominated Shorts
I didn’t see the documentaries this year, but I did get a chance to see the others
Animated
I didn’t think these were that great this year so I’m not going to comment on them individually. Most were silent too, so no quotes.
My Pick:The Fantastic Flying Books of Mr. Morris Lessmore
Live Action
My Pick:Tuba Atlantic
*
Pentecost
*
Go out there and have the best mass of your lives.
Loads of fun – the audience erupted in applause when it ended.
*
Raju
*
And what will you tell them?
A film that takes itself too seriously. My least favorite by a long shot.
*
The Shore
*
They’ve brought in a horse?
A wonderfully quirky story about love and family. Great stuff – and very funny.
*
Time Freak
*
Don’t you dare!
As much as I love time travel and the premise of this film, it fell short in my opinion.
*
Tuba Atlantic
*
That was very precise.
Very interesting characters in a strange story. The best of the films in my opinion.
