Carlitopolis Redux

Luis Nieto's short about a lab mouse and experiments upon it employs a clever technique.

A scientist stands with the mouse in a vivarium and, as we watch he takes us through some potentially grisly routines. The emphasis here is on humour, however, so there isn't anything to graphic.

Where this short scores is in the animation of the mouse. Nieto manages to give his critter plenty of personality and while he's a bit of a one-trick mousey, he doesn't outstay his welcome.
