Scoring Methodology: The year's raw average score (calculated from the top ten films with scores greater than 50) is multiplied by a percentage depending on how many movies are included in the yearly average. If it's ten movies, the average is taken as is. For less than ten movies, I use the following multipliers: 99.5%; 98.5%; 97.0%; 95.0%; 92.5%; 89.5%; 86.0%; 82.0%; 77.5%
[<70/<60] in Top Ten.

Turtle: A Super 8 Short Film (2015)
A Surprising Triumph!
Turtle: A Super 8 Short Film tells the story of a kid finding a turtle on his driveway, and him deciding to help out the turtle. The events that follow unravel a surprising amount of character development for a two-minute short.
Without going into much detail, the song, "D'yer Mak'er" by Led Zeppelin really drives this short's mood, and becomes a defining characteristic of what this story is really about. After you watch it, I guarantee you that this song will be stuck in your head!
If you have two minutes of free time on your hands, I recommend watching Turtle: A Super 8 Short Film. You will find yourself pleasantly surprised.
