Who likes emotions?!

Hey everybody, how're you guys doing out there? Good? I hope so. So let me ask you a question, when you are trying to decide what movie to watch, do you stray away from and gravitate towards ones that you KNOW are gonna make you sad? You know, The Shawshank Redemption, The Green Mile, Million Dollar Baby, Schindler's List, etc etc.

For me, I like seeing a movie that makes me weep like a child without a lollipop. So if you're like me, I ask you to check this animated short out by David OReilly. I really love interesting animation, and this definitely fits the bill. There's a sequence that had my jaw drop and stay open for like 30 seconds. It's called "Please Say Something" and here's some info about it:

A troubled relationship between a Cat and Mouse set in the distant Future. Winner of the Golden Bear for best short film at the 2009 Berlinale.

Written, Directed & Produced by David OReilly, Sound design & Voice synthesis by David Kamp, Sound design & Music by Bram Meindersma. Distributed by Future Shorts.

It didn't make me cry, but it moved me for sure. There's just something so genuine about this short. In any case, everyone should see it because I think that our ability to feel, in terms of emotions, is something we should cherish and relish in as much as we can.

Enjoy.
