No body nose the trouble...

The Nose (1963)

Directed by Alexander Alexeieff and Claire Parker this animated short is based on the story of the same name by Nikola Gogol. Cutting open a loaf of bread a man finds a nose in it.

Bizarre to say the least this is a strange little film that maybe does not adapt perfectly without knowing the source material but is still an entertaining watch. Some of the source material may have been lost in adaptation but there is still enough surreal imagery to keep you watching. The animation style is good and clearly takes skill but is not ground breaking.


3/5
