Oscar-Nominated Disney Short Animation Is On YouTube… For All To Watch

The Oscar-nominated short animation Paperman has been posted on YouTube, allowing everybody to see it for free.

The short was made by a small team at Walt Disney Studios and is a love story in black and white.

The film tells the story of a man who notices a woman on a train platform, and then sees her working in an office across the road. He tries to get her attention from his office by sending her paper aeroplanes, with mixed results.

The old-fashioned feel of Paperman is far removed from the current choice of animated films.

The film was directed by John Kahrs and is one of five films nominated in the short animation category at the 85^th Academy Awards which take place on Sunday, February 24^th.
