Reseñas destacadas
One of the commended films this year....
Each year, there are special showings of the Oscar Nominated Animated Short films. However, normally this show would only last about an hour...or less. So the folks who packaged these films also include several so-called 'commended films' as well. "Lost Property Office" is one of these commended films.
The film appears to either be made using stop-motion or is CGI...I had a hard time telling. Regardless, the story is done without words and was rather weak in my opinion. A man has apparently worked at this lost property office his entire life. But his job's being eliminated and so he builds a flying machine and flies off to God knows where.
The best thing about the film is its look. Using only sepia tones, it created an interesting little world. Unfortunately, the story itself did little for me.

Useless, Maybe, Worthless, Definitely, Beautiful Without a Doubt
The man on the desk at the Lost & Found office at the railway station is told that no one wants that junk, so they don't want him.
This wasn't nominated for the 2018, but was included in the Oscar-Nominated Shorts show, and the reasons why are clear. It's arty -- monochrome in sepia -- it's from a country that had no nominations -- Australia -- and, well, it's quirky and amusing in an antiquarian way. I've just gone through a patch of rereading Avram Davidson, a man who was so erudite that he had to invent empires in 19th Europe to warehouse his ideas. I've never read a piece of his that involved a Lost & Found office, which strikes me as just peculiar, but then everything about Davidson was peculiar, although charmingly so, and far more colorful than this sepia effort.
Which, however, I enjoyed greatly and recommend to you. As I do Mr. Davidson's writing. Although I advise you, when reading him, to read him aloud. Silent, he makes no sense. Aloud, well, that's precisely how people talk.
