Two of my favorites are a claymation called CLOSED MONDAYS and a film by Robert Swarthe called KICK ME. Kick me was actually drawn on the film frames. Very detailed and quite funny. There's a neat little surprise for the viewer, also.
De Düva (The Dove) (George Coe & Anthony Lover, 1968)
This isn't the best way to watch this goodie, but since I hadn't seen it for 35 years(!), I think that everyone should see it. I just watched Ingmar Bergman's Through a Glass Darkly, and it's good, but I think this is actually better, as a satire of Swedish films, Bergman and The Seventh Seal. I hope you enjoy this. Watch for a young Madeline Kahn!

Burn-E. It's also up on youtube, but the colours are a little washed with that version.
