Shaun Tan has made a short film of his picture book The Lost Thing. There’s a trailer on youtube: it seems like the art direction has perfectly captured the style of the book1 but the animation looks a bit clunky. Despite which, I am running to see this … when I find out how/when I can.

Notes:

  1. Not Shaun Tan’s style: that he seems to reinvent with each new project. Seriously, check out his site. This is a visually versatile dude. Personal favourites: The Arrival and The Rabbits. [↪]
