Gentleman's Duel

Oh Mr Andy W – how terrible you are. First, you suggest that a film with deulling Steampunk gentlemen would be a grand idea, and then you go and not only find one already made, but a beautiful and delightful looking one at that! I hope you realise that I couldn’t resist posting this today, and you’ve caused me to jump my very own queue of Steampunk goodies. How terrible of you. Anyway, enough of my waffling, Mr Andy W did indeed find that a 3d animation studio known as Blur have recently finished their latest work of Oscar worthy animation, Gentleman’s Duel. It is a tale of the oldest kind – two men, one woman, and only one of them can win her! But here we have a neurotic Brit and a flouncy Frenchman engaging in a battle of wits and giant mechanical steam mechs. How I’d love to see this, but it seems that it’s doing the short film festival circuit at the moment – hopefully it will come to more earthly locales soon. Thank you, Andy.
