 Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Ryan is a 2004 animated short film by Chris Landreth, produced by the National Film Board of Canada.It is a biography of Ryan Larkin, former animator for the NFB. Larkin was in his heyday one of the many genius animators who worked for the NFB; his 1968 animated short Walking was nominated for an Oscar, losing to Disney cartoon It's Tough to Be a Bird. However, addictions to alcohol and cocaine cost him his job with the NFB and eventually left him homeless, begging for spare change on the streets of Montreal. The short consists of Landreth interviewing Larkin at a Montreal homeless shelter.The short is notable for its deeply odd style of 3-D animation. The people appearing in the short, namely Larkin, Landreth, and some of Larkin's old acquaintances, are represented by highly stylized, mangled versions of themselves, with pieces missing from each of them as means of representing emotional and artistic trauma.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })

 The Alcoholic: While Ryan eventually beat cocaine, he did not stop drinking, which is a big reason why he's a homeless bum. He's drinking out of a thermos throughout the interview. Chris begs him to quit drinking but Ryan refuses.

 Ink-Suit Actor: Well, since it's a documentary, Landreth animated himself, Larkin, and Larkin's old colleagues Felicity Fanjoy and Derek Lamb.
