10/10
The best short animation because...
7 July 2008
Because it is a very watchable poetry, an example of magic, which makes me play this DVD again and again. It is 11 minutes of excellence.

I've seen a number of other cartoons by Mr Yuriy Norshteyn but I did not like them much. To me they are all right. But this one is something absolutely out of this world.

Craftsmanship at its best. The soundtrack is a symphony of sounds and catch-phrases, which vary in depth and attitude. It can be a simple "Psycho!" ("Psih!" in Russian) or a reflection on one's life and death (cf. the scene where the hedgehog falls into the water).

The only thing I'm very sorry about is that this animation legend ends so quickly.

10 out of 10 - this is what I call excellence (I would give it an 11 for its 11 intoxicating minutes). Thank you for attention.
