The Snowman (1982 TV Short)
10/10
Christmas perfection.
7 November 2022
A young boy makes a snowman, and the following morning, the pair set off on the most wonderful adventure together.

Thirty minutes of the most magical, heart warming, uplifting, moving television that you will ever see.

They certainly don't, and simply can't make them as good as this one, for me it has never been surpassed, it will forever be the epitomy of Christmas. Yes it's sentimental, but it somehow manages to capture so many feelings, feeling of wonder, joy, sadness, all without words.

From David Bowie's introduction, to the animation, to the music, this will forever be one of the best animations of all time. Will it ever be surpassed?

That ending still gets me, I can remember seeing it at a young age, and being so upset by it, it's just so moving.

10/10.
