Chicago – The relationships in our lives affect who we are, whether they are momentary or long term. Interestingly, like the Oscar nominated Live Action shorts, the Animated Short Film nominees have that similar connective themes in four of the five stories. Family relationships, son-to-mother, mother-to-daughter, daughter-to-father and parents-to-child, are explored in poignant and expressive ways. The Landmark Century Centre Cinema in Chicago are currently showing all the shorts in one program. Click here for more information.
Rating: 4.0/5.0
One of the nominees, “Animal Behavior” (Canada), is not so much about relationships, but is a comic overview of the law of nature in the context of a psychotherapy group session. The other nominees – “Bao” (USA), “Late Afternoon” (Ireland), “One Small Step” (USA/China) and “Weekends” (USA) – are about our relationships, and the influential nature of them. The trend of animation is to communicate different subjects in this flexible and reverential art form,...

This is one of the better crop of animated shorts the Animation Branch has rewarded this decade. “Animal Behavior” is quite funny, “Late Afternoon” is beautifully animated with a universal story, “One Small Step” is imaginative and “Weekends” is wonderfully impressionistic and haunting, but it’s hard to see any of them overcoming “Bao.” Pixar has an impressive history in this category and, moreover, it’s one of the most original and surprising of the bunch.

Once again the general public will have to opportunity to view something that was a regular part of the movie experience for many decades, the short subject. Throughout the “Golden Age” of Hollywood, the studios produced these smaller films (generally under an hour) that were usually shown in between two films (the great double feature). There were the cartoons made by the studio animation departments, and the live-action shorts, often comedy mixed with some closer to documentaries like the newsreel (pre-tv filmed events) and the travelogue (a film tour of world locales). With the advent of TV, most theatres stopped showing them and the major studios closed their divisions. The shorts then became the primary domain for independent filmmakers and continued to vie for Oscar nominations. Now, with the increasing streaming platforms and cable outlets, shorts are becoming more accessible now than in many years. Still, big screen programs, aside from film festivals,...

For most people, the news that the Oscar-nominated short films will soon (Feb. 8) be coming to a theater near you may not be the hallelujah moment it is for lovers of the short form and for those nerds among us trying to get a leg up in our office Oscar pool.
The three short film categories – documentary, live-action and animated – at the Oscars are invariably the hardest ones to handicap, especially if you haven’t seen them and when meeny, miney, mowing them only gives you a 20% chance of picking the winners. Yet, there they are, three mysteries that can ruin your ballot or put you on top.
I’ve just finished watching all 15 nominees and know which ones I like best. But picking the eventual winners at the Academy Awards is still a chore. Based on our predictions Pixar’s “Bao” is a huge favorite to win animated short.
