Hangman. Wow. There's actually very little animation in the film, but that "lack" perhaps provides a feeling of increased gravitas. On the other hand I found the music strangely jaunty in ways, though that also felt like a(n appropriately?) grotesque contrast and complement to the story. I won't soon forget the images of the hanged men—quite disturbing. I was unusually thankful for the light-hearted retro ad at the end.
