I don't think I've ever seen any of the short films nominated for Oscars.

You've never seen them? You must come! Truly my favorite moviegoing experience of the year. At least one of the ones I saw at an Oscar shorts night turned out to be the best film I saw all year (ten-minute running time notwithstanding.) The quality varies from year to year (per Tom... I've only seen it twice.) Two years ago was peak, last year less-so, but they're always really great for a discussion-- and unlike long movies, if you don't like one, just wait another five minutes and it'll be over.

I still find myself thinking of some of the ones we've seen-- we have been amassing copies of our favorites so that we can host a short film night at chez Todi Mooers.
