Oscar for Best Animated Short: La Maison en petits cubes by Kunio Kato

Thanks to a heads up from Rene Walling at Frames Per Second, the Oscar winner for best animated short is...."La Maison en petits cubes" by Kunio Kato.

I've been avoiding posting movies that are split but this is just too good....

UPDATE: Apologies, the movie has been removed from Youtube.

Sadly youtube deleted the videos. Would have liked to see it.

All the Academy award shorts (and a few also-rans) have been bundled and we were lucky enough to see the lot of them a couple weeks back here in Portland.

The Kato piece made my wife (and other unnamed colleagues) weep copious tears, and there were many other beautiful films too. I think it's great that you're giving films like this some nice exposure (where allowed). Bravo!
