Tim Burton, eat your heart out!
22 October 2002
On the whole, I actually think that Tim Burton would find this one amusing if it ever crossed his field of vision. I think James Whale would probably have loved it too. Not your typical Christmas cartoon, by any means. Sentimentalist that I am, I like to think that when Frannie grew up, she got an appropriate job, like working for an HMO or something like that. Macabre little short with a heart (pulsing madly in a jar, no doubt) of at least bronze, if not gold. It's on Spike and Mike's Festival of Animation, Vol 3, I think. Well worth watching, this one gets an "A" for sheer chutzpah alone. Recommended.
