So, 'The Ten Commandments Number 9: Thou Shalt Not Covet Thy Neighbour's Goods' is this curious little animated short from '95. It feels offbeat, you know? Joel Cutrara narrates this whole cynical tale about Cisco, a guy who finds fortune in some pretty dark places—like selling electronic torture devices. It's jarring to see him framed as the hero while exploring heavy themes like exploitation and the suppression of workers. The animation style isn’t groundbreaking, but it’s got this gritty vibe that adds to the unsettling tone. The pacing’s kind of brisk, which keeps it engaging, but I can't help but feel a bit conflicted about rooting for Cisco. It’s certainly distinctive in its approach, blending dark humor with a critique of capitalism.
