"Man in a Blizzard," by Jamie Stuart

Roger Ebert writes "Man in a Blizzard," by Jamie Stuart. "This film deserves to win the Academy Award for best live-action short subject. (1) Because of its wonderful quality. (2) Because of its role as homage. It is directly inspired by Dziga Vertov's 1929 silent classic 'Man With a Movie Camera.' (3) Because it represents an almost unbelievable technical proficiency. It was filmed during the New York blizzard of Dec. 26, and Jamie Stuart e-mailed it to me with this time stamp: December 27, 2010 4:18:18 PM CST."

Nice short and beautiful photography, but Oscar-worthy? I don't think so.
