Palimpsest
Palimpsest
Palimpsest charts the changing lives of the interior of one house over a period of three centuries, a time-frame compressed into ten minutes - portrayed through a combination of time -lapse, real-time, and stop-frame photography. The camera is fixed as the 'space' inside the frame itself transforms, destructs and evolves over the years: historical eras are evoked through references to 17th, 18th and 19th century painting and early 20th century cinema and the human presence in the house is signalled through scenes of everyday labor and domestic duty.

Back in 1987, CGI was still relatively new. Pixar had only produced three shorts by that time and they tended to be extremely simple. And, such projects took years and were still created using massive mainframe computers--as PCs were not fast enough or complex enough to do this sort of work. And, most importantly, rendering software had to be created by anyone wanting to do such work. It was a very primitive time for the most primitive sort of CGI, this short film is an animation that was used to demonstrate the new physics of the polygon animation.

My friend made me watch this movie four nights ago. I resisted but gave in and had no idea what I was in for. OMG ... i've now watched it at least twice a day since then. The visuals, humor, the perception from a dogs view, and the music, the music gets you. Go in with no expectations and enjoy the ride.

Isle of Dogs is an animated film with dogs as the stars. The human characters are secondary. Visually it is as good as it gets and the story is good enough to keep the audience watching. A mean mayor in Japan has banned all canines to an island due to a doggy flu. The cure is hidden from the public and a 12 year-old boy must come to the rescue of his pet and the rest of the dogs. A few Japanese language moments had no subtitles and I don't know if this was a mistake. Otherwise, Isle of Dogs provides some much needed distraction from the current news cycle.
