This animated short by Disney tells the story of a mans love life through the eyes of his best friend and dog, Winston. The lack of dialogue allows for the audience to really relate to the characters and create a connection between them so that when something bad does happen, in this case when the woman breaks up with the man, you actually do feel upset yourself as you've connected with the characters - the appeal of the characters is effective at involving the audience, as they are simply everyday people, like you and me. Furthermore by keeping the number of different characters down to a minimum this only helps to provide this emotional connection as you spend more and more time with them. The attention to detail is impressive, and only proves that to produce even a short animation requires time and research. The use of staging is effective at communicating the story to the audience, for example when Winston is under the table clearly being ignored due to the mans new companion.
