Originally Posted By Ursula I loved One Man Band for many reasons. The little girl's character development was spot on fabulous. The two band-types played off each other well and I loved how the competetion timed well in the build-up. I loved the coloring, too. How many people noticed that there are no words? We mentioned this to a few people after the screening, and everyone said they didn't even notice. That is great storytelling right there!

Originally Posted By sherrytodd You can download One Man Band along with the other Pixar shorts on I-Tunes. It costs $1.99.
Originally Posted By basil fan After viewing the list of shorts so graciously pointed out by Kirby, my favorite is probably One Man Band, but I'd have to watch Mike's New Car again to be sure.
