I AM SO PROUD OF YOU [2008]
The second part of Don Hertzfeldt's Bill trilogy proves that sequels don't suck.
Continuing the struggles of the mentally ill character of Bill, I Am So Proud Of You follows him questioning life & death, the loss of his mother and his family history. It's gut-wrenchingly hilarious, thoughtfully heartbreaking and really, really twisted. Everything one should come to expect from a Hertzfeldt animated short.
The simple, yet fascinating animation is top-notch as is the use of classical music at key points in the film.
5 scary grandmas out of 5
The short is only available through Hertzfeldt's own Bitterfilms website.
