Fantasmagorie -- The trippy 1900s
Made in 1908, Émile Cohl, created one of, perhaps “the”, first animation. Watch it. I love how the animation is like a stream of consciousness. “First I was here, then I did this, and then whoah this happened to me, and then… and then!” I have a bias for wanting the endings ruined — I want to go right to the end. However, there are times when I can suspend the mind and appreciate the absurd and surreal — that animation made my day. I enjoy Monty Python for similar reasons.Do you take enough time to enjoy the nonsensical?
