Overrated? “In a Heartbeat” Animated Short about Gay Crush [VIDEO]

Overrated? “In a Heartbeat” Animated Short about Gay Crush [VIDEO]

NBC is breathless in its coverage about a nice, but not extraordinary, bit of animation currently “viral” on YouTube. As it’s only four minutes long, take a look.

As a piece of animation, it is very competently done. The direction and framing shots equal a professional, studio production and the musical selection supports it well. It contains some amusing moments, especially of how one character reacts to the all-encompassing embarrassment that only pre-teens and young teens feel they alone experience. I didn’t find it offensive for its gay relationship. I didn’t find it particularly moving for its gay relationship, either.

Indeed, would it really being getting the type of OMG!!BEST THING EVAH!!! attention if it had been done as boy/girl piece as the creators initially planned?
