An unassuming gem
everythingdiz3 February 2021
A simultaneously mournful and sly meditation on the effect "married vs. Unmarried" has had on so many women's lives throughout history. How either can seemingly alter the spaces they inhabit, yet the world arguably remains determined to confine them in one way or another regardless. What a poignant emotional arc, eerily mirroring (quite literally) an insidious horror of human culture.

The jump scare with its tongue ever-so-slightly-in-cheek is both effective and affecting, a genuine rarity. Deeply impressive considering its three minute runtime. Ryan Jennifer Jones has quietly crafted one of the best shorts, animated or otherwise, ever produced by Disney in their near-century of existence. Wow.
