"Hazel" Is A Total Badass

A young African boy with a haunting back story starts school in Ireland, and finds out quickly exactly what it means to be the new kid. Winner of Best Narrative Short at the 2008 Tribeca Film Festival and nominated for an Oscar.

I love "Hazel". We should all be so lucky to have one like her among us.

A Short Film For Sunday

Before it was a feature film, it was a short.

Will and I didn't see the full-length film produced by Tim Burton. But, I happen to find the original short by Shane Acker quite good. Melancholy, yes. And mesmerizing...
