help Everything Will Be OK FAQ
Where does Everything Will Be OK fit in Don Hertzfeldt's Bill story?
Everything Will Be OK is the 2006 first chapter in Don Hertzfeldt's trilogy about Bill. The story continues in I Am So Proud of You and It's Such a Beautiful Day, which Hertzfeldt later combined into the 2012 feature It's Such a Beautiful Day.
What is happening to Bill in Everything Will Be OK?
Bill appears to be losing his grip on memory, language, and daily routine as the short moves from odd comedy into neurological collapse. The film uses Hertzfeldt's stick-figure style and handwritten narration to make a roughly 17-minute story feel both funny and frightening.
Why do people talk about the Sundance prize for Everything Will Be OK?
The short won the Short Film Jury Award at Sundance after its 2006 release. That mattered because Hertzfeldt was still making independent animation outside the Pixar and DreamWorks studio pipeline.
Is Everything Will Be OK connected to Rejected?
It is connected by creator and style, not by plot. Rejected is Hertzfeldt's 2000 absurdist short, while Everything Will Be OK starts the more emotional Bill cycle that leads into It's Such a Beautiful Day.
