Nation Film Board of Canada Animated Short Films on TCM 4/9/17

Good news fellow cartoon lovers.

As many of you probably know, The National Film Board of Canada has produced many of the most artistically brilliant animated short films ever. Luckily for all of us Turner Classic Movies is showing two and a half hours of these animated shorts. These will range in years from 1941 all the way to 1999. This block will show some of the best films produced by NFB, including Caroline Leaf's The Street (1976), Richard Condie's The Big Snit (1985) and Sheldon Cohen's The Sweater (1980). 

Many other amazing shorts will be included as well. The block starts at 5:00pm (west coast) and 8:00pm (east coast). It is a definite must watch for all fans of animation, so toon in all you cartoon lovers.
