Disney kommt ganz unerwartet mal wieder mit was richtig Schönem um die Ecke. Paperman ist ein Kurzfilm, der verschiedene Zeichen- und Animations-Techniken vereint und obendrein mit einer höchst rührenden Geschichte aufwartet. Disney-Style halt.
Der Film ist für einen Oscar in der Kategorie Bester animierter Kurzfilm nominiert. Gefällt mir gut!
-> Introducing a groundbreaking technique that seamlessly merges computer-generated and hand-drawn animation techniques, first-time director John Kahrs takes the art of animation in a bold new direction with the Oscar®-nominated short, „Paperman.“ Using a minimalist black-and-white style, the short follows the story of a lonely young man in mid-century New York City, whose destiny takes an unexpected turn after a chance meeting with a beautiful woman on his morning commute. Convinced the girl of his dreams is gone forever, he gets a second chance when he spots her in a skyscraper window across the avenue from his office. With only his heart, imagination and a stack of papers to get her attention, his efforts are no match for what the fates have in store for him. Created by a small, innovative team working at Walt Disney Animation Studios, „Paperman“ pushes the animation medium in an exciting new direction.
