RYAN




Biography

BACKGROUND
In the early 70’s, Ryan Larkin while working for the National Film Board of Canada, produced some of the most influential animated films of his time.

REVIEW
This movie is unique in that it incorporates state-of-the-art CGI animation with the more traditional forms of an autobiography (interviews etc). But more so, it presents the principal characters in a very unusual way: they are but fragments of themselves with the missing pieces representing the loss of that human component?

CLASSIFICATION
for mature themes, profanity.

P.S.
Nominated Best Animated Short Film at the 2005 Academy
