Can you get the image of that title out of your head?

Warning: Spoilers
I've never been big on feature length animated films, but when I had the opportunity to see all five contenders for this year's Best Animated Shorts Oscar, I thought why not. This one came with a warning that it was meant for adults, and time was allotted in the theater for patrons to remove their young children and/or to skip it based on the subject matter. I didn't see any young kids in attendance, so that wasn't a problem. With other reviewers here describing what the picture was about, I'll dispense with that effort and simply say that the film didn't appeal to my sense of propriety, realizing that in pictures today, just about anything goes. But when one of the chapters of this story is titled 'Un Gros Penis', you have a pretty good idea that this won't be of interest to everybody.

This picture is a contender for a 2023 Oscar in the category of Best Animated Film Shorts. I was able to catch it along with the other four contenders for this year's Academy Award at the Paramount Theater in Middletown, New York. If not for this limited showing, I don't know how else I would have been able to see it. So, Congratulations to the Paramount for making it available to enthusiastic cinema fans like me.
