The Choice

About This Movie

So, 'The Choice' from 1972 is this fascinating little piece of animation - more like a visual experiment, really. It’s all black and white, no dialogue, just a series of slapstick moments playing out like a flipbook. The pacing is pretty erratic, which actually adds to the charm, you know? You can really feel the whimsical but slightly chaotic atmosphere, like a silent film that forgot to add the soundtrack. And the practical effects are surprisingly engaging. There’s this raw quality to it, almost like a lost gem that collectors will appreciate. It’s not slick or polished, but it has its own unique vibe that stands out from the more conventional animations of the time.

'The Choice' is relatively scarce, with limited releases over the years, mainly in niche collector circles. The film has not seen a mainstream reissue, which adds to its allure and gives it a certain mystique in the animation community. Its unique style and experimental approach mean it's often sought after by those looking to expand their animation collections, especially for fans of early experimental works.
