In case you missed it, you can still vote for APRICOT at the Vimeo Festival for Best Narrative. It goes against Nuit Blanche, as well as The Raven by Peruvian director Ricardo de Montreuil (Mujer de mi Hermano, Mancora).

Disney’s 1944 The Plastic Inventor with Donald Duck
Is it wrong that a 1944 short brings back memories of childhood to me?
From my group of friends, I think I’m the only one that grew up with old Disney shorts, and sometimes I talk about them with a whole bunch of my friends wondering what I’m talking about.
Did any of you grow up watching this short? How old are you? xD
Maybe I’m not the only 20-something.

Disney’s 1952 Let’s Stick Together with Donald Duck and Spike the Bee
I grew up with this Donald Duck short. LOL
Oh my gosh~ sooooo many memories, though I can’t remember whether I watched this on VCR, or if my dad had tape it on Betamax first. LOL, yeah. BETAMAX.
In this short, Spike the Bee… now old, reminisces of his friendship with a now old Donald Duck. They met while Donald made a living picking up trash from the park, and then became friends and business partners… until Spike met his now wife. The short ends up telling you “bros before bee-hos”
LOL B-Ho <- Mary Cherry.

Your Secret by Jean-Sébastien Monzani
Jean-Sébastien Monzani just uploaded this gorgeous video that makes you think about the things you love… the simple things you love. Hmm… the video is kind of interactive, in a very basic level. xD
I love the sound of dried leaves when you step on them.
I love the smell of newly-printed material (books, magazines, cd booklets) xD
Those are my two fetishes…

Libertas Film Fest on MUBI
Ugh, still can’t get used to MUBI.
Anyway~ The guys at the site formerly known as The Auteurs are letting you watch some of the films screening at the Libertas Film Fest in Croatia.
My personal favorite was the animated short Guliver, which sorta reminded me of Tim Burton’s style… but you know, about Guliver, in a much more grim setting.
All I know is that you can only watch it through MUBI with an account, which is FREE. You can join, and watch it. They always have a bunch of free stuff, and free stuff is always good. xD
If you’re still not sure, here’s the trailer~

Nuit Blanche
Reading the comments of Bibi’s new single Canned Fish, I learned of this Nuit Blanche controversy.
You see… the video is about 4 months old, so I doubt it’s a tribute of sorts. Having said that, I think the music in Bibi’s video works different in that it creates a lot of “tension” between female Bibi and “male” Bibi — if you get my drift. The original, seen above, has better execution though, even without the tension between the guy and the woman, you feel like it’s a beautiful piece… a timeless classic.
See, same concept, different execution.
Here’s the YouTube version if you don’t have a Vimeo account and want to add it to a list.
