Yeah, i'm frustrated over the past 2-3 weeks, having trouble with watching films online, like for the Directors Cup- simply not working properly, something to do with reception here.

Fair point, i think featurettes up to 3/4 hr like Day in the Country may still fit, some might say the limit should be up to 1/2 hr. But anyway, Cowards Bend the Knee will be dropped. After all, i'm not including the Dekalog "Short" films

I think films like Cowards Bend the Knee, A Day in the Country, The Cheat and Not Reconciled (to name a general few, not necessarily on your list) should be considered as medium-sized films instead of short ones. I mean, they were basically made as features, if I'm not wrong, so maybe these fit in a micro-feature bonanza like Blue K created, haha :D Simon of the Desert I hadn't heard as a short film before for instance!

I like some Polanski shorts too, but I wouldn't really list any of them in a top 100, if I were you I mean ;)

Yes, it's fine and i like all those Lye shorts i've seen in that style.

I much prefer the European pre- WW2 avant-garde to the post-war US avant-garde, and i will have you know my list is above reproach and unworthy of vile slander of cheating

hey, cheater, half of those are made by feature film-makers, not such an avant-garde / experimental fan? ;) and increase your animation choices, hehehe.

This is great. I'd love to start seeing some of these.

Kenji

yes, it's important- there are a lot of other admired shorts missing as it's a list of favourites not objective essentials

I would say the first pixar's film, "Tin Toy", should be on the list as it can be known as one of the most influential short-film for the computer animation history...

Thanks for mentioning Sherlock jr, shorter than i'd remembered.

Great list, though I have to admit, I've never seen Tale of Tales. A Day in the Country would be my top pick, followed by Sherlock, Jr.
