2023 Oscars Short Films Review: Animation

It’s interesting with seeing the reels of the shorts films, the Animation nominees are often the ones with the least running time. They go by so fast, the shorts.tv reel add in a couple of other shortlisted films that got their honorable mention. Anyways without further chit-chat, here are my reviews of the nominated animated shorts: Letter To A Pig (dir. Tai Kantor) – The story begins telling…

Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home premiered on November 26, 1986. It was the second Star Trek film directed by Leonard Nimoy. The film completed the story arc started with Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan. The movie marked the 20th anniversary of Star Trek. The movie was the first of the Trek movies to take on a more humorous tone. The bridge crew (Captain Kirk - William Shatner, Bones McCoy - DeForest Kelley, Scotty - James Doohan, Sulu - George Takei, Chekov - Walter Koenig, and Uhura - Nichelle Nichols) of the destroyed Enterprise with the resurrected Spock (Nimoy) travelled from 2286 to 1986 in a stolen Klingon bird of prey. Their mission was to get two whales and bring them back to the future to prevent an apocalypse from a whale loving probe. It was the first version of Star Trek to present a female Star Fleet Captain (Madge Sinclair) and established there was no currency anymore in the Federation. The movie had cameos from Star Trek TOS characters Christine Chapel (Majel Barrett) and Janice Rand (Grace Lee Whitney). The movie was released around the time that Paramount announced they were branching the Star Trek franchise into Star Trek the Next Generation. ("Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home", Movie, Event)

René Lefèvre and Annabella in Le Million (René Clair, 1931)

Cast: Annabella, René Lefèvre, Jean-Louis Allibert, Paul Ollivier, Constantin Siroesco, Vanda Gréville, Odette Talazac, Pedro Elviro, Jane Pierson, André Michaud, Eugène Stuber, Pierre Alcover, Armand Bernard. Screenplay: Ren�� Clair, based on a play by Georges Berr and Marcel Guillemaud. Cinematography: Georges Périnal. Art direction: Lazare Meerson. Music: Armand Bernard, Philippe Parès, Georges Van Parys. 

The French do wonderful things with air. They invented the soufflé and Champagne, and the Montgolfier brothers mastered the art of ballooning. And no French director had a greater gift for buoyancy than René Clair, whose mastery of pacing keeps even the most cockamamie of stories from collapsing, going flat, or crashing to Earth. Le Million is the quintessential Clair film, a musical farce that inspired countless movies, some of which don't always stay aloft. You can see the lineaments of the Marx Brothers' A Night at the Opera (Sam Wood, 1935) in it as well as Jacques Demy's The Umbrellas of Cherbourg (1964) and The Young Girls of Rochefort (1967). The story is much ado about a lottery ticket left in an old jacket owned by a young artist (René Lefèvre) with a mountain of debts, and it carries us from his studio to the jail to backstage at the opera and back again, sometimes journeying over the rooftops of Paris, all of which are embodied not by the real things but by Lazare Meerson's evocative sets. The music is pretty but forgettable, which is really all you need it to be.
