Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.Is it for you?
- Who'll love it
- Great for animation lovers and music lovers. One the grown-ups won't mind watching too.
- The mood
- Feel-good.
- The pace
- Paced for all ages, at 3 min. Short enough for a weeknight.
- What might put you off
- No age rating on record, so check it first for young kids.

- Skip it if you can't get past animation (your loss).
This newly rediscovered short was created in Jim's home studio in Bethesda, MD around 1961. It is one of several experimental shorts inspired by the music of jazz great Chico Hamilton. At the end, in footage probably shot by Jerry Juhl, Jim demonstrates his working method.
