I finally got around to watching an animation that I've wanted to see for awhile, The Triplets of Belleville.
This feature film has everything;
stylish animation and great music, lonely orphans who grow up to be high performance athletes, 3 crazy old ladies (or are they?) and one wiley grandma, faithful dogs, obsequious maitre d's, underwater explosions, car chases, shoot-outs, the french mafia, the Tour de France and frogs.
It is fantastic! The local Blockbuster only had one copy, always a sign that it's a good movie, and it was tucked away under International Films (it's from Quebec). Anyway, it's a fabulous piece of cinematic eye candy...
