Iconos del cine pasan por las capas perdidas de la emulsión de ayer en esta apasionante segunda entrega de la contemporánea trilogía negra de Parker. Congregados en un ciudad surrealista, la conflictiva historia de Frank y Charlie se narra como un romance con giros inesperados en el argumento.
Bogart, Tierney, Andrews, Steiner… cine negro en estado puro.

Se trata de Yours Truly (Atentamente suyo), un apasionante corto experimental del británico Osbert Parker que combina animación “cut-out” con acción real para relatarnos un hazaroso romance en el marco de una ciudad surrealista al más puro estilo “noir”.
Este corto sin diálogos que mezcla magistralmente técnicas distintas en una narración impactante se presenta como la segunda entrega de la trilogía negra de Osbert Parker, nominado por “Film Noir” para el BAFTA a Mejor Cortometraje Animación en el 2006 y a la Palma de Oro en Cannes.

It is a total joy to discover the work of Brit animation genius Osbert Parker. This bloke is the bees-knees in animation and he rocks. His work is a crazy combination of stop-motion, cut-out animation and live action that creates a new and strange real-imagined world, where animated photos of people get out of model cars then turn into real life actors. The effect is so powerful that I couldn't pull my eyes away from this wonderful world of shadows and guns and femmes-fatales. Love mixed with betrayal and murder are the mean streets of downtown Osbert's brain. Actually, I watched both of them three times in a row. Think Double Indemnity meets Casablanca on peyote cactus, then close your eyes and you might get the idea.
Both films evoke the noir genre and in that spirit seem to be set in re-imagined 1940s Los Angeles. One of the fun parts of watching these shorts is trying to pick out the faces of classic film stars that his collaged in there. He even samples those great dramatic soundtracks from back in the day. Parker's films have been nominated for several British Academy Awards, and Yours Truly actually won the award for "best short animated film" in the 2008 British Animation Awards.
From what I can work out, Osbert now works on his own films, but also with a New York based company, Curious Picture, who make pretty cool animated commercials and graphics.
