ERNEST ET CELESTINE

So the other day I went here:


To see this guy:


Talk about this:


To be more specific,
Dreamworks was hosting an
ASIFA HOLLYWOOD 
screening of 
a film by 
French director 
Benjamin Renner
called
Ernest and Celestine.

Based on the books by
the film is about a bear and a mouse 
who become friends,
something unheard of in their
segregated society.

Check out the trailer:

Personally,
I thought it was totally charming:
Beautiful design
(loved the broken line and watercolor textures)
Fluid animation
(great weight to the characters)
Wonderful voice acting
(I can listen to people speak French all day)
and
a cute, silly, fun story
(not saccharine)
(great for kids and adults)
(BUT it has subtitles so unless your kids speak French...)
Definitely check this out 
if you get a chance!
Oh... 
and this is 
coming soon, too:
