'Your Face' was nominated for an Academy Award in 1988 for 'Best Animation'. It's about a man singing about the admiration he has for his lovers face and while doing so, his own is morphing into a bunch of strange shapes and even devouring itself over and over.
Fun Fact: Many people would assume that a man was singing the song in the film but, it was actually written and sung by Maureen McElheron. The song was then slowed down to sound like a man's voice because Plympton didn't want to hire a male singer. I guess he figured why spend the extra cash when he could just figure out a way to get it done in-house. If you've ever read any of his books or seen his other short films such as "How To Kiss" or "25 Ways To Quit Smoking" you'd know he's quite the innovative problem solver.
Anyways, below I bring you 'Your Face'. A awesome short film that Bill Plympton graced the world with. Enjoy!
