Short Films Introduction and Index 

Ranging from just a few minutes to 40+ (AMPAS rule, see below) shorts cover a huge range of subjects and are often the training ground for directors. Their popularity has risen to the point where there are short film festivals and are sometimes shown before the main feature on the art-house circuit.

There are several dvd collections available, purely made up of short films, they are also often included as extra features on dvds. The intention of this thread is to index all the shorts already listed on the site plus to detail many more including (wherever possible) links where the films can be viewed.
