Summary: A Charles Bukowski poem is put to animation. Four kids who are friends are drawn to a strange house that their parents tell them to avoid. One day they see a man of about 30 step outside, cigar and whiskey bottle in hand. He becomes a symbol for them of all that is strong, natural, and beautiful. What happens later to this man with the beautiful eyes introduces the boys to the gray and uptight world of adulthood that awaits them. (imdb)

The poem is really more a short story (with Bukowski it's not always clear) but it's a good one, and the narrator does a good job. The animation is serviceable.

Beautiful. True to the poem, and in it's innocent yet maybe surreal animation and imagery, it gives the poem more dimension, it turns it into something fresh and new. If you're looking for animated shorts don't miss this one.
