I can't tell whether I found this extremely comforting or extremely unsettling. I have a strong bias towards this short due to the fact it's one of my childhood favourites.
Tim burton truly was a genius, I saw was because wtf is he making now 😭. Wednesday is so buns 💔.
Anyway, this is probably one of the weirdest things I have ever seen, and thats coming from someone who has seen 9/10 of lynch's feature length filmography 😭🙏. It is also, as of now, the only short film in my top 50 favourite films of all time!
