Movie #3418 ........................."Yuck" (theatre)

Movie #3418 "Yuck" (theatre)  This is the 5th and last oscar-nominated animated short that I saw, and it was cute.  The gimmick here is every time people are thinking about kissing someone else, their lips turn a bright pink.  Kids in a campground discover all of these people who are doing it --- and it is terribly funny, until it's two kids from their own group.  They soon discover not to call them "perv" but to see love all around.    Kind of silly, terribly French, and cute.   I'd give it 4.5.

"YUCK"      2024       13 mins           animated short

Yuck.  Couples kissing on the mouth are gross.  And the worse is, you dan't miss them:  when people are about to kiss, their lips become all pink and shiny.  Little Leo laughs at them, just like all the kids at the sumer camp.  But he has a secret he won't tell his friends:  his own mouth has actually been glistening.  And, in reality, Leo desperately wants to give kissing a try.
