“Balderdash, my heart is a better compass than your cogs and gears” - brilliant line, oh,to be smitten . . .

Man, there's more art in these 11 minutes than entire movies...

Chatting AI: Your movie hits the head of the nail! Superfluous humanity. WOW!

I often play shorts, but this was the first time one of them got my wife's and daughter's attention. They both sat and watched it and enjoyed every bit of it. It was like a modern Mr. Magoo to me. I could imagine a series with the antics of Widdershins as he tries to connect with his love, always comes close but never succeeds. We would watch every episode rooting for Widdershins' success. Very well done.

What an absolutely riveting tale of whimsey, romance, and escape from monotony. May they live happily ever after. Bravo, Magnetfilm. Bravo, indeed.

Lovely! The art was gorgeous! A feast for the eyes. Loved the steampunk style and the rich textures. There seemed to be a little Edward Gorey in there too. Enjoyed the happy ending and the message as well, though I felt a little bad for poor Bertie as I think he was underappreciated. He really did seem to care about his human.

Me and my wife are going through this together right now.... We left comfort and monotony for a little adventure, an adventure that goes against the "normal" path one should take in life... Happy travels to all the risk takers out there who don't conform

Exquisite. The Edwardian "retrofuturism" with the charcoal lines and the 3D modelling really makes this an evocative and alluring work.

Congratulations to everyone in the team behind this. Loved everything. So stylish, so steampunk, such amazing animation! x

Only Scotland could produce something so sophisticated, provocative, and slightly psychotic. Brilliant work.

Was a film student many years ago in college. Well done by all involved. Loved the backgrounds, textures, attention to detail on all the movements and the fluid changes with each scene, bloody well done!

In a world of material things, the human touch is the most hardest thing out of reach and the right soul mate is what makes us human, amazing that the lady with her free spirit awakens our man 😎 the too feathery comment give me a chuckle 🤭 very enjoyable animation ,well done to all

I love how the technology can seem old and advanced at the same time

In the mid-1980s, our library had a 16mm film library. One short film was called "A". It was done in pen and ink, very sparse details in the animation. The plot goes as follows. A man comes home to his apartment and while going about his tasks, he is harassed by a large capital letter A. At the end of the film, the A disappears, the man is relieved. But, just as the film fades out, the letter B appears. I would love to find out more about the film. The library has long since gotten rid of its films and doesn't have records of what was in the collection. Thanks!

I love this. It truely captures the plight of what we are experiencing even today. A world where we are sacrificing our ability to live life to the fullest and instead confine ourselves to what is virtually a prison. Bravo indeed

Brilliant! I loved everything about this piece - the artwork (especially being in monochrome), the 'world' that had been created, the characters... I really liked the suspense at the end where we think our character has decided 'enough' and steps out into the void. Thank you for allowing us to share in this wonderful experience.

At last, a short movie that I can understand and appreciate without having to read endless theories as to what it *"really"* means. I prefer to trim my own moustache too 🥸

Mr. Biggs: This just came up on my recommendations... It deserves millions of likes and views! What an absolute delight! I too, Love Miss Caprice, and I adore this film! I would love more of their story, a couple bound by anarchy...

This is absolutely phenomenal! I could watch this for days and days! I'd love to see a whole series in this world!

The black and white color choices really underlined the steampunk inspiration for this piece. I enjoyed it immensely!

I agree, this screams steampunk, or "Sherlock Holmes meets the Fifth Element". I loved this short for a few reasons, definitely faving it.

there is nothing beautiful than being a human and natural. Great job. My greetings from Marrakech, Morocco.

Splendid! So many short films leave one feeling unsatisfied with…well, everything, but this one is everything a short film should be! The story grabbed my attention immediately, held my interest throughout, and, most importantly, came to definite and satisfactory conclusion.

Really nice work. The pen and ink feel of the animation is so well done, story development is so fine.

An absolute jewel, only 200k views is ridiculous, this is a masterpiece

Brilliant! I would definitely watch a series of the mans ups and downs with technology and the quest for life and love!!!!

I loved every second of it. The artwork was incredibly unique and you did it without a thousands colors. Bravo.

Loved every bit of this steampunky goodness! The artwork, the animation, the quirky love story, all so wonderful!

Very funny with cute romantic ending. Reminded me of Wallace & Grommit with the mechanical dressing.

That Shot where He jumps and it switches between him and the Egg falling is so good, i've rarely Seen Something that is so Well Made, it Just really makes the Scene pop

How brilliant! Not only the creativity and craftsmanship of the film, but also the story and how the story is shaped by life in our age.

Prophetic. I love how the old times ring with the new. Entertaining and thought/heart provoking. Thank you.

What a great film! It is visually beautiful. The texturing in the illustration was stunning. It's brilliant and should be used to teach art classes.

This was great, the black and white perfect, the old to new spot on

I LOVED this art work was amazing the message was disturbing and beautiful at the same time. I’m 67 and just subscribed. Thank you for sharing your gift!

Absolutely marvelous! Congratulations to the team who put this together!

This is fabulous! Great job putting this together l. The 3D style is beautiful and smooth.

I love this! Awesome story and animation, this is better than a lot of Pixar shorts!

I was astounded already at the start, once I saw that clock, and the detail and beauty of its motions and shadow, and the theme and meaning of the story as well.

Brian Cox?? I knew Widdershins sounded familiar! Excellent job to the whole team for the whimsical animation! I'll be remembering this for a long time to come.

The talent and creativity displayed in each of these videos absolutely blows me away!!😯👏👍❤ Truly wonderful work!!

That was different and rather lovely.

OMG! And I thought I've seen everything! Not just exquisite animation,but wonderful story as well. Hats off to all involved in its imagination and creation. Thank you for sharing.

Loved it! I want more! This has a lot of potential to be a series or akin! Excellent job👌

Amazing work! We need this in full movie length!

Absolutely stunning! Definitely award worthy work. Long May this continue! Fantastic work guys, congratulations!

Love this!!! The art style is AWESOME! Wonderful story! Brilliant! Bravo!

Congratulations ! Just perfect ! The story, the style… just amazing !

Great short movie. I had fun watching this. The art style is very good and the voice actor did a great job, too.

Terrific! Love the music, too!

People demand a perfect world, but isn't the joy of life in difference? BRAVO! I love it!

Oh this was brilliant! Loved the story, the artwork, the execution! Simply fantastic!

incredible drawings and animation, not to mention a most timely theme.

When a corporate 9-5 fall in love with a free spirit

Thanks & Kudos to all involved. From textures to themes it was a joy to behold.

Completely cleaver! So clean and elegant! Superb work! Bravo to all involved!

Great animation. The team done great work... extraordinary remarkable work. Bravo mister Biggs, bravo !!!

I really enjoyed that! I love the steampunk fantasy vibe, the plot and that sudden and happy ending. Yes, dare to break out of your routine and step beyond what's considered acceptable and proper. Reach out for happiness and grab it!

Thank you for sharing this masterpiece with the world.

A huge TREAT.....to watch again and ag........Splendid soundtrack too. THANKYOU

This deserves so many more views

Adding this to my list of favorite shorts!

Bravo! Even in this twisted world, which is also OUR world right now, love may triumph!

Love , heart & consciousness, thinking out of the box overcomes programming , routines & rules of the artificial matrix.

WOW, REALLY well done. Thank you soooooo much for making this. Even in black and white I enjoyed it. You guys are AWESOME 🤩

Ticks all the boxes. Well done, you.

Excellent! Original! Comedic! It's got everything!

The influence of Edward Gorey is clear. Nice. Love the artwork.

Lovingly rendered, such attention to detail!!💜

Utterly Fabulous!!!

I absolutely loved this so much and will share with my family and friends. Well done and great story!👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽⭐️⭐️⭐️❤️❤️❤️

That was truly beatiful. A masterpiece. Very well done. Very original. And it gave so much emotion :D

Congrats! It is fabulous, great work 💐

Bardzo zaciekawił mnie ten filmik. Był krótki, ale pełen wymownej treści. Uwielbiam filmy fantasy, sf i bajki. Mam uczucie niedosytu mimo, że była świetna końcówka. Cudowna tematyka pomimo sztucznej inteligencji, komputeryzacji, techniczno - cybernetycznego świata powala mnie ukazana siła miłości. Jak ktoś docenia w całym zarysie sztukę nie tylko tą piękną to czarno - biały kolor filmiku nie powinien przeszkadzać. Ten kolor dodaje temu filmowi więcej treści i pokazuje jakim jest nasze życie. Pomimo kolorów może być szare. Miłość dodaje życiu kolorów i ciekawych wrażeń. Wiara czyni cuda. Świetny zespół filmowy. Ewa Ewa Ewa

An absolute gem. It even made I smile. WOW!!!

Beautiful work ! Especially the b/w style, like made with ink and quill.

Love the art style. And I'd like my eggs to have smiley faces 😊 I know that's not the point being made by the film, but it's a nice detail. 👍

I love it! In a perfect world, what would there be to ignite your heart, your passion? We need a bit of imperfect to show us that we are still alive! We need to know there is something worth getting a black eye, and falling into the refuse bin for. That’s what makes our lives interesting. A perfect world would be boring and become, as our protagonist demonstrates, no excitement, no awe inspiring events.

Stunning. Just stunning. Thank you

It hit every nerve in my body!!!!!! Intelligently Arty!!!!!!!! Cheers to many more to come!!!!!

Great ending. Most short films I see now have sad endings.

Muito bom. Parabéns aqui do Brasil. Very good. Congratulations from Brazil.

Amazing art work. The thought involved for this creation is beyond words. A tip of the hat for a job well done!

Steampunk, Sci-fi and romance. Excellent. Well done 👍. Thank you.😍

I loved this! I wish this was a series.. I would deff. watch. Please make more like this!😍

Great work! Love it!

THIS IS TOO COOL!!! This style and animations! Everything in this cartoon perfect!

Schrecklich eine perfekte Welt, gerade aus dem unperfektem entstehen die besten Ideen. Perfekt zu sein ist kein Leben. Wichtiger ist es ein wertvoller Mensch zu sein, mit eigenen Ideen und Vorstellungen. Und dies aus einem Selbst und seinen eigenen Möglichkeiten. Interessant.❤

Great work this really made me 😊

i thought the ending was gonna be sad for a moment :0 thank gudness it was happy ^w^

The reference to "Hello World" (the first basic example in every computer programme) and its distortion to Hell Word as a reference to tech becoming pervasive and intrusive, is golden.

Absolutely delightful, and brilliant!! ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️

C'est absolument stupéfiant. J'en suis absolument abasourdie : Disons-le clairement, c'est GÉNIAL. Top niveau, à tous points de vue.

Amazing!

Brilliant. Loved every second!

this should have MILLION OF VIEWS... Bravo

Moral of the story: Love who you want no matter what people say,

Great story

Absolutely great! Animation, story, voices, everything very entertaining.

Brilliant, simply brilliant!
