Paperman

This is a beautiful example of charming storytelling without the use of dialogue. It's a Disney short film, and it feels like the Disney studios have taken some inspiration from Pixar's inherent charm; this really has a lot of the feel of Pixar about it. It's a wonderful little video that I highly recommend.

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.
