Viewing Notes

Fifth short in the live action. Easy to see why this was nominated however a little too contrived to appeal to the audience. Yes, it packs a punch and is depressing as fuck but you know as you’re watching this how it’s working you into this emotional state. Could win the Oscar but I don’t think it will.
