Simply A Masterpiece

Pretty Good

a film so unique, intoxicating and bizarre that it not only demands another viewing, but is also forgivable as a satirical comedy where the jokes eventually take the back seat.

It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.

Interesting short animated film from the National Film Board of Canada. Not a classic, but not a bad way to spend 13 minutes. A guy lives alone. He's really desperate to meet a women. But whenever he's with a lady, it's like he's multiplied by three. Himself, always wearing the "No problem" shirt. Himself #2, always wearing a suit. Himself #3, always naked (scary picture!). And all along, there's that little fury animal living with him. An insect? A dog? There's some funny stuff, like the Little Black Book. Zolga! Maybe he'll finally find true love with her. Don't bet on it! Seen at home, in Toronto, on February 13th, 2006.73/100 (**½)
