difficult, but interesting
This film's title is 'Two Strangers Who Meet Five Times'. It has five stages. To begin with, the story starts the Second Time. In front of the cash machine, two men quarrel. Next is the Third Time. A man, Alistair, seeks a job and visits an office. In this office, another man, Aziz works and he meets Alistair again. Aziz asks him that we have already met somewhere but Alistair does not nod his head. And at the Fourth Time, Alistair looks homeless and has not enough money. Alistair sees Aziz but Aziz does not remember him. Aziz gives him money. Next scene is the First Time. This time is when they are children. They play in the sand, but Alistair's mother forces him to go back home because she is a racist. From this scene, viewer realize the cause that Alister is a racist for the first time. Final scene is the Fifth Time. Alistair visits Aziz 's house as a volunteer. When they meet each other, Alistair does not remember Aziz. Aziz looks sad. Above that, this film breaks a time order. To enter the First Time in the middle of time order, sets up questions of their connection at the beginning of the movie. An interesting movie has things that the viewer cannot expect, in other words, making a good movie needs contrary to the viewer's expectations. It is very difficult for the director.
Knick Knack (1989)
PIXCER film is cute
This short film is entitled 'Knick Knack.', the main character is a display object snowman and he lives in a snowdome, so he longs to get out because he wants to approach a woman. She is a display object too. This is his adventure story. He tries to break a snowdome in various ways, such as a hammer, drill a hole and a dynamite explosion. His dome then moves because of the explosion. In addition, his dome falls off the shelf. When it happens, he tries to escape from there. He finds an emergency exit and succeeds in escaping.

He is very happy and gets close to her but his snowdome falls into a water tank and he is surrounded again. In the end, he cannot get out of the snowdome and he loses the chance to meet a woman. This short film is made by Pixar studio, so it is easy to understand and it has three-act structure.
Lifted (2006)
fanny and cute film
'Lifted' is directed by Pixar Animation Studios, so the characters are cute and it is easy to understand the story. This main character is an alien who takes an examination to operate a spaceship. On the test, he tries to lift a boy from a house but the alien is not good at controlling him. In the spaceship, there are many control sticks and he pushes the wrong sticks again and again. A proctor checks him next to him and makes a deep sigh. He is so bad that the proctor controls the sticks instead of him. He feels really sad and sheds tears. The proctor sees him and lets the testee take control. He is very glad and tries to lift a boy again. However, he does not control the boy well. On the contrary, he causes chaos and leaves only the boy's bed. When the boy gets up, there is not nothing around him. He does not understand it. In my opinion, short films by Pixar are clear on introduction, development, turn and conclusion, so they are loved by a wide generation. I love them too.
Fish Out of Water (2005)
Nice short film
This short film is entitled 'Fish Out of Water.' This story is about a man who goes to his office by boat. Most people go to their office by car, bus or train, but he brings a paddle and rows a boat. A woman sees him and she wants to ride his boat. He agrees, but the next day the number of passengers increases. Moreover, their manners are so bad such as eating food, smoking, spreading the news paper and throwing garbage away. He reconsiders the method of commuting to work to escape them. In the end, he decides to scuba dive to his office. I think his way of commuting to work is interesting and good because this way is kind for the earth and doesn't cost money. In addition, I think in old times there was a job which was rowing a boat for carrying passengers but now there is not because of urban development. In conclusion, the commuting way changes with the time.
Father and Daughter (2000)
Interesting Film
This short film is entitled 'Father and Daughter,' so this story is about a family. My first impression is that this story is about a happy life with a family because the father walked the road with his daughter happily. However, more and more, this image changes. First, the father releases his daughter's hand and then he rides on a boat and rows it by himself. As a result, the father never sees his daughter. In the end, his daughter can finally see him, but the time is when his daughter is older. She never can forget him and visits the place where he disappeared at all ages and hopes to see him someday. I think this film director wants to tell us that it is important to interact with family when you can see them. In this story, the daughter could see her father after her death. I found this interpretation through discussion. To sum up, this story is difficult.
