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

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

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!

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.

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.

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

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

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

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

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

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!

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

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

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

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.

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...

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 🥸

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

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

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!

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

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.

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

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

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

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

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!

That was different and rather lovely.

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

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

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

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

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

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.

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

Ticks all the boxes. Well done, you.

Terrific! Love the music, too!

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.❤

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

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

I love that the butler is Bertie, a little nod to Jeeves me thinks!

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.

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.

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

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

I was wondering there at the half mark, but that 2nd half kicked it.....bravo!!

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

Amazing work! We need this in full movie length!

Futurism, 1900-style. Gotta love it!

That might be one of the coolest things I've seen since Edward Gorey.

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

This deserves so many more views

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

this should have MILLION OF VIEWS... Bravo

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

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

I love how the butler drew on the egg to make it more appealing

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

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

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!

My Sentiments Exactly:) Well Done! BRAVO!!!

When everything is perfect, there is no excellent to pursue and new possibilities to discover. So imperfect things make the world so beautiful and charming.

Adding this to my list of favorite shorts!

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

Everything with Brian Cox in is good. 😊

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.

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

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

This deserves 1 million likes

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

Utterly Fabulous!!!

Love this video ❤ and this is probably what people in the late 1800s thought the future would be

Brilliant. Please MORE. Please. Please.

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

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.

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.

Best short film yet.

Lovingly rendered, such attention to detail!!💜

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. 👍

Honestly the best animation I have seen in many years.

That it looked to be animated by an engineer added to the vibe, cool!

Great work this really made me 😊

Congrats! It is fabulous, great work 💐

Bravo!!!! Bravo!!!!! Last words said all!

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

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

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

Very clever. This is what true satire is meant to convey: "The Emperor has no clothes!" Leave it to the Scotts - Braveheart!

Bravo. We all need this. Thank you team😊

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

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

Brilliant, simply brilliant!

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

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

Great work! Love it!

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

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