The Dot and the Line (Oscar 1965)

Mellart posted this clever animation by Chuck Jones and the MGM Animation/Visual Arts studio.

A straight line is in love with a dot; however, the dot finds the line too plain, unimaginative, and rigid. She would rather spend her time with an undisciplined squiggle who is much more fun. The dejected line later realizes that he doesn’t have to be unbending. When the line demonstrates his abilities to the dot, she realizes that true beauty comes from discipline and that the squiggle is not for her.

Yes all that from a line and a dot as the main characters. Another demonstration of how little you need to tell a story.
