Jack and I tend toward a minimalist approach to holiday decoration – we’ve got a wreath and a poinsettia, and we break out the gold accent pieces for New Years, but our many past apartments and time spent out of the city throughout this month every year have never led to a curated collection of keepsakes.
Still, this 2011 short film by Leigh Johnson for Nowness was a delight – dark but festive, dry but funny, its look at the life and death of a holiday ornament gave me a laugh and made me feel a bit more festive this morning. Have a look!
