The Necktie (French: Le noeud cravate) is a 2008 animated short by Jean-François Lévesque about a man with a dreary job who rediscovers his old accordion at age 40, and with it, his joy for life.[1]
The film uses a variety of animation techniques. The central character is a puppet filmed in stop-motion, inside miniature sets. His co-workers are animated with traditional animation drawings on paper, digitally integrated into shots but designed to give the appearance of being 2D cardboard cutouts.[1]The Necktie was produced in Montreal by the National Film Board of Canada.
The film garnered the Jutra Award for Best Animated Short Film,[2] the Fabrizio Bellochio Prize for Social Content at the I Castelli Animati Festival, the youth jury prize for best animated short at the Festival de cinéma des 3 Amériques as well as the Best Short Film Award and the Audience Prize for Best Canadian Short Film at the Montreal World Film Festival.[3][4]
