"Thank the gods of cinema for this annual release of Oscar nominees." - San Francisco Chronicle
"Short films remain a great way to discover new talent in its infancy. Past short film winners have included John Lasseter, Peter Capaldi, Jim Henson, Don Siegel, Taylor Hackford and Steven Wright." - rogerebert.com
FilmScene is pleased to continue our popular annual tradition of screening the Oscar-nominated short films. A perennial hit with audiences around the country (and now the world), don't miss this year's selection of short stories.
All three programs feature every Academy Award nominee in the Animated, Live Action and Documentary categories. Shorts programs will screen multiple times before and after the Oscar ceremony with individual ticketing for each program.
2020 OSCAR-NOMINATED ANIMATED SHORTS
Rating Note: PG-13. The themes tackled in this year’s Animated program are heavy – the death of a parent, Alzheimer’s, China’s one child policy, and more. The program is rather melancholy but there is nothing especially objectionable within. These shorts will mostly appeal to children 12 and over.
