Why it’s a Monday Morning Maybe
With a box office flop and almost no lasting buzz, this one could be a tough watch. Keep your phone handy.
Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.Is it for you?
- Who'll love it
- Tailor-made for sci-fi fans and animation lovers. One the grown-ups won't mind watching too.
- The mood
- Feel-good.
- The pace
- Bright and bouncy, at 8 min. Short enough for a weeknight.
- What might put you off
- No age rating on record, so check it first for young kids.
- It's in another language, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
- Made in 1971: an older pace and style.
- Skip it if you can't get past animation (your loss).
Writes Matsumoto, "I used the Erekutoro Karapurosesu (Electro Color Processor), which is mainly used in the field of medicine and engineering, to create moving image textures Metastasis, I was interested in layering images of a simple object and its electronically processed abstraction. The electronic abstract image is manipulated in a certain rhythm, depicting an organic process."
