A Collection of 2007 Academy Award Nominated Short Films is a title that sums up this collection pretty well. I have seen the previous collections and have really enjoyed the opportunity to see these short films that in the past we really have not has access to.
This years collection featured a really strong live action set, with all five nominees being really good. Usually there are one of two where I think, "ehhh....really?" But all five this year were great, and in my opinion, four of them could have won the Oscar. All very different and all offering something unique to the mix.
My chief complaint was that the animated section this year did not feature all five nominees. In years past, sometimes other nominees in this category were under the extras section, but not this year, and that was disappointing, so we got only three of the nominees. But the winner, Peter and the Wolf, was fantastic! It was an amazing 32 minutes of music and animation with not a word of dialogue.
