 Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_3'); })Borrowed Time is a 2016 animated short film directed by Andrew Coats and Lou Hamou-Lhadj.It begins with a sheriff in a Western setting walking up to the edge of the cliff, his face suffused with grief. The reason for his grief is shown in a series of flashbacks, which show the sheriff as a boy riding in a wagon train with his father, until tragedy intervenes.Although Coats and Hamou-Lhadj were both staff animators at Pixar, and the short reflects Pixar animation quality and style, it is not an official Pixar short, having been released independently by Quorum Films.A rare example of the Animation Age Ghetto being averted in an American film.Not to be confused with the 1985 adventure game.

 Darker and Edgier: Maybe this trope doesn't strictly apply as this is not actually a Pixar short, but if one does consider it a Pixar product, then this is quite a bit darker than anything the studio has ever made before.

 Bittersweet Ending: The Sheriff shakes himself out of his Heroic BSoD and finds his father's watch, but he's still grieving and forlorn, especially since he was directly responsible for his father's death.

 Gory Discretion Shot: All we see of the father's death is a splatter of blood on his son's face as he accidentally pulls the trigger.

 Deconstruction: Of the Western shoot-out and the grizzled, stony cowboy. As a young man, his inexperience with a shotgun led to him accidentally filling his father with buckshot, and today he's not so stony so much as depressed.

 Age Cut: From the man's older, grief-stricken face to his face as a boy riding alongside his father.
