>>94864861Who the fuck even wrote this short? A 15 year old? The tragic element is completely contrived and unearned. What happened to the guy that was chasing them? Was he literally just there so the dad and the son would end up by the cliff? It's literally just a sad and disturbing scene of a kid accidentally shooting his dad and bearing that guilt into his old age.
Fuck, not even Pixar itself is this obvious when they manufacture an emotional response. There's no message, no theme, no idea, nothing. It's just a fucked story that makes you feel like shit. People actually put effort into this.
Yes, the short itself is visually impressive, but that's seriously it. How sad that something so shallow story-wise should get so much recognition.
