who's seen it? I just watched it, and was amazed. I expected it to be good/different, thats why I picked it up at the video store, but it exceeded my expectations. The art is superb, absolutely right down to the detail. The characters are perhaps the most expressive I have ever seen in an animated film. The plotline, the sounds, there's so little to criticize, its just that good.
The French are still the masters of cool/wierd visual presentation. You would think that some enterprising Japanese or Americans could outdo them, but only a French mind (Quebecois to be exact**) could come up with such genius..
**at least I think so. I'm not sure, since the film had so many different "labels". I saw the BBC was involved somehow, I saw some Canadian film organization's logo, and I think I saw some French ones. Yes, I realize Quebecois are not French, please don't point it put to me. Though as far as I know, the whole thing was masterminded in France, by Frenchmen, so thats why I give them credit.
