Fantasy City by Tatsuo Shimamura
January 27, 2010 1:53 pm
I’m not going to pretend like I fully understand what’s going on in this short—alienation and dehumanization in modern society is always a safe guess—but there are a lot of interesting visual ideas in this 1968 Japanese short directed by Tatsuo Shimamura. A bio of the prolific Shimamura can be found on AniPages Daily, while this short can be purchased on Volume 10 of Something Weird’s Classic Cartoon Rarities collection. (Thanks, Brian Lonano) |
