Quimby the Mouse Short Film

Nothing I'm involved with, but too good not to share. An animated short based on his Quimby the Mouse by the peerless Chris Ware. It was made for This American Life - Live! which will have an encore screening on May 7th.


Looks even better in HD: Quimby The Mouse on Vimeo.

And if you ever get a chance, check out the show — there's nothing else like it on television. Just pull one off iTunes. I like My Way, but every one of them is good.

Edit: Since the Quimby short was taken down from Vimeo, here are some other Chris Ware animations:

Opening short for This American Life TV episode "Every Marriage is a Courthouse": [Streaming] [Hi-Quality MP4]

Opening short for This American Life TV episode "The Cameraman": [Streaming]

Short clip of Quimby, assembled from "frames" printed in one of the Quimby the Mouse collections.

Edit 2: It's back!
