Wordlessly, their actions — yawning, peeing, taking a deep breath — correspond with activity within their milieus — a cow’s moo, a waterfall, a breeze — in a perfect marriage of image and sound. The pair is competitive at first in tacit one-upmanship, not unlike “Spy vs. Spy,” but ultimately comes to appreciate...
