'The Fantastic Flying Books of Mr. Morris Lessmore' Wins Oscar (Video)
February 27, 2012
What wasn't mentioned on last night's Oscar telecast was that this amazing animated short (YouTube video shown above) was part of a wildly popular iPad app that rose to the top of Apple's Top Grossing Books Apps last year.
Enjoy this beautifully crafted film, which is a kind of love note, sans dialogue, for books and all they mean to us.
Congratulations to William Joyce, Brandon Oldenburg, and everyone at Shreveport, La-based Moonbot Studios (which is part a public/private initiative to spur growth in Louisiana's budding film industry) for the achievement.
