Trivia

Almost every scene in the short splits the screen up into multiple moving "windows". The whole movie and all of its special effects were photographed and carefully composited "in camera" - no CG was used in the production. See more »

My goodness this is strange!!!
14 August 2008 | by MartinHaferSee all my reviews

This film was included in THE ANIMATION SHOW VOLUME THREE--a compilation of short films arranged by Don Hertzfeldt and Mike Judge. Overall, this is a very impressive DVD--and much of it is due to CITY PARADISE.

Even for Don Hertzfeldt, this is a super-strange short film!! While it is not funny like the films you find on Volume One, it is so incredibly creative and bizarre that it's also quite compelling.

EVERYTHING IS O.K. is a surreal stream of consciousness which features the usual Hertzfeldt stick men drawings. However, instead of violence (which we love) in this film, it's more about a guy who's going crazy. He's either got schizophrenia or a brain tumor (more likely) and you see through the course of this film as he looses his mind. What I particularly liked was his use of multiple screens to show how this sick man perceives the world. Some may find it all quite funny--I just found it strangely compelling.
