CGiii Comment

Quite clever.

Credit to the amount of work involved...

It did, however, need a stronger ending...something earth-shattering!


Watch...

The(ir) Blurb...

The nature of 'hotness' is explained in 9 minutes via one man's sexual and spiritual awakening. The film uses a variety of story telling techniques including animation, montage, narrative, and lecture. The truth is funny. Dr. Richard Snyder examines the way people are evaluated for attractiveness in modern society. Socially and scientifically, what he finds is surprising... and revealing about himself.
