Actress Sean Young arrested at the Oscars! Honestly, we were rather dumbfounded at reading this headline and had to go investigate what the heck a B-list celebrity like Sean Young did to get herself thrown in jail on the night of the 2012 Academy Awards. Apparently it all turns out to be just another case of a has-been actor who just can’t get it through their head that perhaps they should just retire from the faltering spotlight and find a new line of work.Actress Sean Young arrested at the Oscars!

“Paths of Hate” is an animated ten-minute short film directed by Damian Nenow at Platige Image, which is in the running for a 2012 Oscar for animated short films. The film was named on a list of 10 films that was released last week by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences; three to five nominees for the Oscar will be chosen from this list.
“Paths of Hate” contains stunning visuals that recreate a WWII-era aerial dogfight and presents a dynamic tale about the hatred that seems to be an indispensable element of human nature. Damien Nenow, a recent graduate of Poland’s Lodz Film School, has created a film of great visual power, which brilliantly shows the demons that slumber deep within the human soul and have the power to push people into the abyss of blind hate, fury and rage. The finale of the film introduces a surreal turn of events, which stands as the director’s bitter comment on the bloody destructive fury of war.
This piece includes colorful illustrations, as well as the stunning animated short film.
