Hulu has reached an agreement to stream the 2022 Oscar-nominated animated short film “My Year of Dicks” beginning Friday.

“My Year of Dicks” is headed to Hulu on Feb. 17.
The short film that tickled many at the 2023 Oscar nominations as Riz Ahmed read (and giggled at) its title hails from FX Productions. It was initially produced as a part of the Fxx animated anthology series “Cake” before the company encouraged writer Pamela Ribon and her team to take it on the film festival circuit, where it picked up enough awards and attention to land a nod for best animated short.
Based on Ribon’s memoir “Notes to Boys (And Other Things I Shouldn’t Share in Public),” “My Year of Dicks” is a romantic comedy set in 1991. Pam is trying very hard to lose her virginity, but it doesn’t match up to her fantasies. While searching for her ultimate partner and going through puberty, she meets up with goths, skaters, indie film snobs and straight edge posers and...

Now that the nominations for the 95th Annual Academy Awards have been released, Oscar season is in full effect. While most awards coverage usually revolves around the top honors, it's critical to remember that categories like Best Animated Short often don't get as much chatter, which is a shame given everything that happened last year. In a truly baffling move to cut down the runtime of the ceremony, the Academy pre-taped the award, along with 7 other categories, earlier in the day and then presented edited clips of the acceptance speeches.
The kicker is that in doing this, it did absolutely nothing to shorten the program, as the ceremony ran nearly 20 minutes longer. Thankfully, this year will see the previously shafted categories presented in full during the live ceremony, especially after a wave of criticism for the boneheaded move. The fresh batch of nominees for Best Animated Short include "The Boy,...

Icelandic Director Sara Gunnarsdóttir’s new animation My Year of Dicks is an adaptation of a chapter from Pamela Ribon’s memoir Notes To Boys (And Other Things I Shouldn’t Share In Public). It’s about a fifteen year old version of Ribon going through a burgeoning sexual awakening and the desire to lose her virginity despite the slim pickings on offer in her neighbourhood on the outskirts of Houston in the early 90s. Taking a multi-faceted style, Gunnarsdóttir enlisted the talent of a cadre of animators to bring her vision to life and paint Ribon in the varied, all-encompassing light that is reflected in the memoir. Dn spoke with Gunnarsdóttir as My Year of Dicks arrives online, in the wake of it being shortlisted for this year’s Oscars, to discuss the method she took to select her animators, the perks of collaborating with everyone remotely, and the...
