A six minute classic of a movie. So powerful in its detail, so intensely autobiographic, so deliciously expressionist. On par with the best German silent movie classics.
It'd be hard to describe this movie without giving it away. Suffice to say, it's Burton's most powerful, shortest, and (maybe) best movie ever. I watched it with no expectations whatsoever, and came away very impressed.
I gave it a "10" because it truly shows the power and magic of the movies. It's message and medium beauty all rolled into one. Superb.
