Just a reminder! DON HERTZFELDT is gonna be gracing us with his presence at The Bijou this Sunday, Feb. 5th for screenings of his animated shorts at 7:30 and 10PM!!!!! This is seriously cool. Like really I wouldn’t lie to you. His shorts are extremely bleak while somehow managing to be insanely charming and hilarious. He’s probably most famous for his trilogy following a mysterious man named Bill. Hertzfeldt’s latest film, “It’s Such a Beautiful Day” is his longest, and most ambitious, piece to date: blending traditional animation, experimental optical effects, trick photography, and new digital hyrbids printed out one frame at a time, the movie was captured entirely on an antique 35mm animation stand, one of the last remaining cameras of its kind left in America. It’s also the final film in his “Bill” trilogy. Film nerds commence the drooling. The entire animated trilogy will be screened together for the first time via new 35mm prints, immediately followed by a live on-stage interview and audience chat with Don Hertzfeldt. Don Hertzfeldt’s animated films have been featured in over a thousand film festivals and venues around the world and have collectively received over 150 international awards. Some notable honors include a Short Film Palm D’or nomination at the 1999 Cannes Film Festival (Billy’s Balloon), a 2001 Oscar nomination for Best Animated Short (Rejected), the Sundance Film Festival’s Jury Award in Short Filmmaking (Everything will be OK), and Best Picture and Best Screenplay from the Fargo Film Festival (I am so proud of you). In 2010, Don received the San Francisco International Film Festival’s “Persistence of Vision” Lifetime Achievement Award at the age of 33.
