"La Luna" or "Pixar's middle finger to those who require dialogue and more than 7 minutes to make you fall in love."
-
A beautifully animated and economical coming of age short with bags of charm.
-
Another amazing short film from Pixar, heart-warming story about generations in a very peculiar and unique way, simply put, beautiful.
-
Lovely, wonderful, warm, heartfelt coming of age story that had me misty-eyed by the time it ended. If you read Italo Calvino; if Moon ever seemed to you more than just a rock tied to Earth with an invisible string; if you sometimes, oftentimes, always stare at Luna because it is there and you just can’t look away – go buy tickets to Brave just for this short that precedes it, sneak your way into the theatre, or Facebook-friend people at Pixar so they could maybe send you a copy in exchange for some unspecified future favours. Whatever it takes: I don’t care, and you shouldn’t either. Just watch it now.

Re-watch as it was on the 'Brave' DVD.
Pixar short about three generations of Italian(?) men & their job on the Moon. A gentle fantasy with good use of light. 8/10.

La luna is such a moving piece of art, it's amazing what 7 minutes of story-telling can achieve. Will put a smile in your face and some tears in your eyes!

One of my favourite shorts from Pixar. Without any dialogue, the short is beautifully animated, but most of all La Luna is charming and sweet, and tells a heartfelt story of three characters from three different generations. It really is rather wonderful.

Spectacular animation and beautifully humorous.
You could call this "sweet," "cute," "lovable," "charming," or a mixture of the four, but I'll just settle on calling it absolutely wonderful.
