Best Shorts Countdown (Talking) #5: The Old Man and the Sea
Once I posted about an animated wordless short The Little Matchgirl. This was nominated for an academy award in 2006. I got curious about the other shorts which won the award or were nominated for it.
Looking for beauty, technical skill, depth, and whether they can be shown to kids, I collected a top five silent animated shorts list and a top five animated shorts with dialogue list. Here for your enjoyment is #5: The Old Man and the Sea, winner of an academy award in 2000. Read more about this paint-on-glass short animated by Alexander Petrov and based on the Ernest Hemingway novel. 20 minutes.
