Cast
No cast, no dialogue and made by people off my radar
Verdict
It's common knowledge that I've cried to five movies but short films until now hadn't garnered that reaction. If Anything Happens I Love You had me standing throughout, transfixed to the screen and blubbing like a newborn.
Generally I dislike this arthouse animation style but here the content is so endearing, so well made and so close to home I simply didn't care about this and took it for what it is. And what is it? A masterpiece.
This is simply wonderful and one of the best things on Netflix, perhaps even the greatest short film ever made. It destroyed me, I cried my eyes out and yet announce that everyone should give this 13 minutes of their life.
Rants
The price of American freedom? Countless dead children so that Joe McShootface can have his manhood extension. If you're going to allow everyone to have an item that serves the singular purpose of killing others can we at least give them free mental healthcare and news that doesn't tell them to hate everyone? For crying out loud people, what did you think was going to happen? I hate guns more than I hate any type of person but even I wouldn't trust myself with one. No guns = No mass shootings = No children catching bullets to the face #simples
