When Los Angeles Laker superstar Kobe Bryant decided to make a film of “Dear Basketball,” his farewell poem to the sport he loved, he chose two collaborators who knew nothing about the game: former Disney artist Glen Keane, who had animated Aladdin, Beast and Tarzan, and Oscar-winning composer John Williams. They were good choices. Their film won the Annie Award, the animation industry’s most prestigious prize, for best short film of 2017, and is considered a likely favorite for the Academy Award for animated short.
