2004 - Lorenzo

Lorenzo is a Disney animated short about a pampered cat who is "dismayed to discover that his tail has developed a personality of its own."
It originally appeared as a feature before the film "Raising Helen", it is not present in the dvd though (or any other dvd that I know of?); it was meant to be featured in "Fantasia 2006", now delayed.
Only a teaser is available online:

è davvero un peccato che il corto sia irrecuperabile! Per non parlare di come è caduta in basso la disney ultimamente... (ovviamente pixar a parte)

Very interesting blog you have here! I think you may like Osamu Tezuka's "Legend of the Forest", you can find it on YouTube. You won't regret it!

@ anonymous (who are you btw? :P): I did not regreat it o_o Thank you very much for the suggestion, I promptly ordered a dvd with Tezuka's experimental animations and I will probably feature legend of the forest when i receive it :)
