The Lady and the Reaper

In which a miracle working doctor is battling for the sould of an old woman who is ready to go peacefully into death in this colourful, energetic romp. The music in this one is fabulous, and the old lady remind me of grandmother willow in Pocahontas. 4:58 made me laugh out loud.




Granny O'Grimm's Sleeping Beauty

In which computer and hand drawn animation is used to tell the humorous story of an embittered grandmother relaying her own unsettling version of sleeping beauty to a terrified child. The writing in this is hysterical, and the little song during the end credits.




French Roast


In which an unfortunate cafe patron who has misplaced his wallet and is running up a huge tab in an attempt to stall. Visually, this is my favourite of the three, the matted hobo, the bulldog face, the waiter, the parisian decor, the decrepit mirror, i love the whole look. And I love the ending.
