Post by mattias »

anybody knows of any websites or magazines that review short films? i mean more or less professional reviews, not user comments a la imdb or ifilm.

Sometimes I've seen articles in newspapers or journals that have reviews of compilations, but rarely of single shorts. In the US the short film form is kind of ignored, at least critically. I imagine the situation is somewhat different in Europe, where shorts used to screen before features (at least in Poland). I guess the issue that limits professional reviews of short films is the distribution element - review screenings are common for commercial features, but where would a reviewer have a chance to see shorts other than at festivals?
