The Wizard of Speed and Time

1979 · 3 min Animation Comedy Fantasy Music
6.4 / 10 · TMDB

In the original short film, a young man in a green wizard costume runs throughout America at super speed, much like the superhero The Flash. Along the way, he gives a pretty girl a swift lift to another city, gives golden stars to other women who want a trip themselves. He then slips on a banana peel and comically crashes into a film stage, which he then brings to life in magical ways.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take

Mike Jittlov constructs a whirlwind of handmade animation and practical effects, relying on breakneck editing to sell the illusion of super-speed. The film explores the DIY spirit of independent filmmaking with relentless energy and a meta wink.

What lingers after the final frame is the infectious joy of pure, unadulterated cinematic play. It’s a celebration of the magic that happens behind the scenes. — MovieFinder Editorial
