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
- One for anyone who knows cartoons aren't just for kids. Works for the whole couch, from little ones up.
- The mood
- Feel-good.
- The pace
- Lively and easy to follow, at 2 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).
- Skip it if you can't get past animation (your loss).
An impressive parable where the artist’s creativity is paralyzed by the dull crowd can be seen as a metaphor for a totalitarian system. Cleverly designed animation shows the artist as a tied man whose creativity is hindered by the crowd. A visually attractive film with very interesting editing won an award at the Annecy festival in 1983.
