...Claymation creator a nod for Best Short Film (Animated) at next week's Academy Awards ceremony. Up against toon titans Pixar, Disney and Blue Sky, Elliot and his tragicomic creation, who endures Tourette's syndrome and testicular cancer before seizing the day as an avid animal liberationist and nudist, is perhaps the ultimate underdog.
