What are your favorite short films?

I love the Crime Doesn't Pay films even though they are a little hokey. I love the short Films with Zazu Pitts and Thelma Todd. I of course love the Robert Benchley shorts. There is a DVD with quite a few of them. I also love A Failure at 50 (about Abraham Lincoln), and one from the 50's which is sort of a modern Nativity. I can't recall the name.

My very favorite Short Film is So That Mother's Might Live. I greatly admire Semmelweis and might never of heard of him were it not for this film.

Those Benchley shorts are a riot! Some of my favorites.

Also, I really love the FitzPatrick Travel series...his voice is awesome!
