Around the Web

Grotesque in all the best ways. The animator’s sense of motion and weight is incredible.

My absolute favourite movie of all time, I watched this as a kid a little too much, and it shaped me, a beautiful emotional story, and I absolutely cannot recommend this movie enough.

The animation is incredible. The art direction is wild, and there's no need for a thousand words to tell a great story.
