Title: Sheer Brilliance
Review: This film immediately grabs your attention right from the begining, and not simply because it is animated. It really comes from the fact that its use of colour and imagery is utter perfection. The film talks about the life and works of the amazing Canadian animator Ryan Larkin and his works from the 70's, and the woman he loved.The aspects that make this stand apart from other animated shorts is the way Chris Landreth chose to evoke thought and emotion. The people you see are only partly complete, perhaps in reference that we can only ever know people so much and that the rest of them is a mystery. When their emotions become stronger their bodies will spike colours or contort into strange shapes.This film will mesmerize you and awaken your imagination with form, colour, and beauty. If you love film and animation, this is something you must not miss.
