The Old Man and the Sea1

[RidhoCaesar]

SUPERB !!!

[TRUEZFAN]

Alexander Petrov is one of the best animators in the world.

[ateniense7]

Beautiful and expressive! It seems the impressionist paintings of Renoir!

[miceskin]

This isn't HD it's better.

[Deeperap]

Russian artists are so underrated. This should be shown in every single school of art in the world. It has its place with the biggest "chefs d'oeuvres " in the History. Thank you Mr Petrov this is pure genius and hard work.

[Nietzschesaurus]

is this in japanese? this sounds very much like japanese. i know that doesn't make sense at all, as the artist was russian and his other pieces are in russian, but to me this sounds very much like japanese.

[PeaceLoveLayce]

@Nietzschesaurus I was thinking the same thing.



[TRUEZFAN]

@Nietzschesaurus

[johanstone]

[arnabc2003]

i was looking for this short since 1999 where none of this is available. i cant believe i found it after all these years! thank you youtube!

[MyKat75]

это русский фильм потому как создатель его русский а значит в фильм проникла русская душа ,идея,чувство и исполнительское искусство...а вот техника на которой он снят может быть любой это значение не имеет...

[sheilagraber]

Found "The Old man - and the Sea" - Magic

[Ventilator313]

Wait- why is this in Japanese?

Anyway, this is beautiful; I've just watched 'Hedgehog in the Fog,' and I really like these Russian animators. It's something really different from Western animation.

[sfried]

Russian animation IS Western animation.

[Rabarberskurk]
