YouTube handed out awards this week, voted on by users of the site, to the best videos of the past year in twelve categories. I watched the short film winner, My Name is Lisa, when it was a finalist in that Juno promotional contest a couple of months back, where it took third place. I thought it was pretty terrible––unbearably mawkish, in fact. But what do I know? It apparently managed to draw tears from at least one person who makes a living telling us why culture is stupid, and that’s no small feat. Watch it for yourself above, and see the rest of the winners here.
