The Windshield Wiper

I have to start by saying that I don't agree with any of the reviews so far. I don't think it's meh nor am I blown away.

Don't get me wrong, I enjoyed it, it makes you think about yourself and your own life. After all, what is love to you? I'm sure you could identify some scenes as romantic or caring and others not really. Either way it's impossible to be indifferent to it.

The animation is good but for a short animated movie that relies enterely on visuals to get across their message, it could be better.

Overall, a good animated short that may even win best animated short oscar.
