Former Pixar animator's short to become Dreamworks feature

Former Pixar Animator’s short Alma to be made into Feature | The Disney Blog

There is a video in the article that lets you watch the short, "Alma". It is amazing!! A little dark (perhaps why Disney/Pixar didn't pick it up?) but SO good. I got chills.

Direct youtube link to the short: YouTube - Alma - Rodrigo Blaas.mp4

Re: Former Pixar animator's short to become Dreamworks feature

Oh wow I thought it was amazing. It could have gone even darker I guess and been really spooky, but what a great concept and the attention to detail is superb. I would also love to see a full length feature of this. Thanks for the info, really enjoyed it.

I just showed it to DD and DH and they said the store window looked like a mouth too- DH got it straight away- they loved it though.

Re: Former Pixar animator's short to become Dreamworks feature

Too think the window looked like a mouth. It is very creepy...I don't like dolls with eyes that move like that. I would still like to see the rest of the story but I am not sure that it would be best for the DDs to see.

Re: Former Pixar animator's short to become Dreamworks feature

I just keep thinking of that horror movie with that doll Chucky in it. It is an interesting concept, but would definitely freak out my youngest DD.

Re: Former Pixar animator's short to become Dreamworks feature

Eeek, reminds me of Coraline - very creepy. As I short I can handle it but if as a full movie, no. Unless all the dolls revolt and escape back to kids again at the end.

Hey good idea! Now that would be a good movie
I feel for the little guy on the bike who is trying so hard to get out of the door.
And I think I am going to post it on Facebook too to see what my friends think.
