Let me know what you think!
I surely will.
Perfect! I hope you enjoy it.
Found it, great!
But of course:)
Indeed. I’ll check it out, thank you ever so much!
If you like that you should really check out Sylvain Chomet. He’s got some hidden short jems out there and his feature length animated films The Illusionist and The Triplets of Belleville are great. Sylvain Chomet is French and so are most of his characters. He also uses very little dialogue if any and relies on the action and emotion of the characters to tell the story. Good stuff!
What a great short film. Junior, junior! That dialect… 😂
