Destino

Chanced upon Destino today. After watching the six and a half minute movie, I dug a bit and discovered an interesting story. Wikipedia says, "Destino is an animated short film released in 2003 by The Walt Disney Company. Destino is unique in that its production originally began in 1945, fifty eight years before its eventual completion. The project was a collaboration between American animator Walt Disney and Spanish painter Salvador Dali, and features music written by Mexican songwriter Armando Dominguez and performed by Dora Luz. It was included in the Animation Show of Shows in 2003." Please double-click the image to go full-screen.
