REJECTED (2000)

Literally one of the most inventive and hilarious short films ever made, Don Hertzfeldt’s REJECTED was nominated for an Oscar for Best Animated Short in 2001. Since then, Hertzfeldt has gone on to make even better and more impressive films with the various installments of WORLD OF TOMORROW and more. He even has a new one out, called PAPER TRAIL, which you can rent/purchase on Vimeo.

But REJECTED is a genuinely brilliant short that, if you haven’t seen it - you simply must watch. And if you have seen it, it’s worth watching one more time.

The basic premise?

A hilarious collection of animated television commercials that were rejected because of their creator's failing grip on sanity.

Enjoy!
