Still Missing Jim Henson

Over Time is possibly the best five minutes of Quicktime you will ever see.

It made me cry.

Made as a short student film, it is a tribute to Muppets creator Jim Henson. Perfectly set to haunting music, done in elegant black and white, it is the kind of thing that is at once fascinating and moving. I must’ve watched it three times today.

If you loved the Muppets, go watch. Even if you are on a dialup connection and it takes forever, go watch. Beautiful animation, done with with love.
