Oscar 2012 Live Action Short Films

Five unique films are nominated this year for Live Action Short films. We have the Football (soccer to the USA) obsessed alter boy in Pentecost, a story about children being kidnapped and then sold as orphans to unsuspecting parents in foreign countries in Raju, A story about friends in Ireland who are estranged and then reunite in The Shore, A young man who's life is turned upside down because of a time machine that he built in Time Freak, and a dying man in Norway trying to reach his estranged brother across the Atlantic in America in Tuba Atlantic. They all had funny moments and they all had surprise endings. Short films are amazing in the quality of writing, acting and directing in such a short span of time. These were all enjoyable but my favorite has to be The Shore because it was the most interesting, well-rounded story of the group.
