Short Films

So, The Academy Awards are coming up pretty soon. What’s your pick for Best Picture? Yeah, we’re with you—King’s Speech or The Social Network, even money. Okay, how about a tricky one … Best Foreign Film? Biutiful, good choice! Alright, Best Short? Trick question! Nobody’s fucking seen those. For one solid week, Kendall Square Cinema will be screening both the Live-Action and Animated Shorts up for an Oscar, giving you a fighting chance for when that drumroll sounds. Which was better? The Gruffalo or Let’s Pollute? God of Love or Na Wewe? You decide! Then they do, and you’ll probably disagree. It’s tradition.
