Een griekse tragedie

The Academy Award-winning animated short "Een griekse tragedie" ("A Greek Tragedy" in English) depicts some female figures holding up a dilapidated structure. The short has clever animation but the plot is nothing special. I guess that these animated shorts don't need to have the most complex plots or anything. Not a bad short, just no masterpiece. Maybe worth seeing once.

This short won an Academy Award. Not having seen either of the other nominees, I can't say whether it should have, but it is a head-scratcher. The animation is good and it's an enjoyable short, but it isn't terribly special. It may well be suffering by comparison to the shorts that it accompanies on The World's Greatest Animation. The short is a good one, but it really isn't one of the greats. Still well worth seeing.
