Introducing a groundbreaking technique that seamlessly merges computer-generated and hand-drawn animation techniques, first-time director John Kahrs takes the art of animation in a bold new direction with "Paperman." Using a minimalist black-and-white style, the short follows the story of a lonely young man in mid-century New York City, whose destiny takes an unexpected turn after a chance meeting with a beautiful woman on his morning commute. Convinced the girl of his dreams is gone forever, he gets a second chance when he spots her in a skyscraper window across the avenue from his office. With only his heart, imagination and a stack of papers to get her attention, his efforts are no match for what the fates have in store for him. Created by a small, innovative team working at Walt Disney Animation Studios, "Paperman" pushes the animation medium in an exciting new direction.

First of, aesthetically, this movie is so beautiful! I love they're use of that new technology and it just gives the film such a nice look that is so different from anything that I've seen. Now about the plot. If you love cute little love stories, like myself, then this is a perfect film for you because it is just so heart warming! I hope no one I know reads this... I really loved it that's why I paid for it and I normally I don't like having to pay but if I could pay a second time I would.

The whole idea of the film was genius! The black & white effect made me think so much about about our technology today, its a beautiful effect! The lipstick, the only color that shows, was a creative idea. Plus, the characters are so cute together, the art is truly gorgeous! Not a penny wasted on this film! Im just sad I found out about this movie until now, I wish they would have made this a bit longer and advertised it! Theres no doubt that everyone would love this! Thanks to all the people who made this!

Continually I find myself amazed with the story and the beautiful animation that Pixar delivers. This truly captured my interest in all of Pixars shorts. I adored Paperman in my experience at the theatres with Wreck-it-Ralph to follow. I was awestruck just staring at the screen in front of me as I saw such a creative and inspiring work. Absolutely phenomenal.
