Brooke and I went with some friends last night to see the Oscar-nominated short films, both live action and animated. My favourites were:
- Give Up Your Aul Sins – This Irish gem is about a television crew’s visit to a Dublin classroom, where a little girl recounts the story of John the Baptist
- Copy Shop – This one, from Austria, was like Chaplin doing Kafka
- The Accountant – Set in the Deep South, this was beautifully shot but almost too “quirky”
