So, 'Doors' from 1959 is this intriguing little gem that didn't quite make it to completion. It's an animated short, and you can feel the ambition in its raw sketches and unfinished animation. The atmosphere is pretty surreal, with a blend of whimsy and a hint of existentialism, typical for that era's experimental animations. The pacing feels disjointed but it adds to that dreamlike quality, making you wonder what the final product might have looked like. The practical effects, though rudimentary, have a certain charm, hinting at what animators were trying to achieve back then. There's something distinctive about its unfinished state that invites curiosity and conversation among collectors.
'Doors' is quite scarce, with only a few known copies circulating among collectors. Its unfinished nature raises questions and adds to its allure, and those who appreciate the experimental animation scene of the late '50s often seek it out. Since it never received a proper release, finding it in any format can be a real challenge, which only amplifies interest in this peculiar piece of animation history.
