The Little Matchgirl (2006)
Kicked my butt!

My eyes don't tear up, not even in real life least of all movies. But this Disney animated 2D short is a beautiful metaphor. It is about everything, from the children of the street in some country, to the well-off professional dying inside from loneliness, in ours. Yes, I watch it with family during Christmas, and yes, along with the other less somber animated specials to compensate :). It has a beautiful message and the humanity of it is enormous. For a seven minute short film, it packs a punch! Roy Disney, the last of the Disney family to actually work with the company, died in 2009. Given that a lot of junk is also constantly put on DVD by the Walt Disney Co., I'm hoping more gems like "The Little Match Girl" will continue to appear.
