nominations this past year. The Live Action Shorts program will run
for one show only on Wednesday, February 11th at 7:30 p.m., and the
Animated Shorts program will run for one show only on Thursday,
February 12th at 7:30 p.m.
The 2008 Academy Award Nominated Short Films program offers viewers

At the screenings, pick up an "Oscar Shorts Prediction" ballot in the
