One of my earliest posts was dedicated to Disney's miniature masterpieces, the Silly Symphonies. Short, sweet, sensible, sensitive; not silly at all. In this post, I focus on animation shorts (and not just from the Disney-Pixar stables), another thrilling and stupendous expression of mind-blowing creativity. I list my favorite shorts here, and in no particular order as such. 1. La Luna  Like the inimitable Oscar Wilde said - Be yourself. Everyone else is taken. Our little hero just does that and makes a luminous discovery! IMDB:   La Luna YouTube: 2. Partly Cloudy High up somewhere in the clouds, your bundle of joy is being given life! But, hold on, there are plenty of sharp turns and twists ahead. IMDB:  Partly Cloudy YouTube: 3. The Blue Umbrella Romance on a rain-soaked evening just got elevated to a whole new level altogether! IMDB:  The Blue Umbrella YouTube:                                     4.  Alma Behind the glass
