Le Roi et L’Oiseau
Posted on December 15th, 2005
Is it me, or does the king from Le Roi et L’Oiseau (The King and the Mockingbird) look a helluva lot like the dude from Katamari that vomits a rainbow (he’s got some serious eating disorder issues). Actually, it’s probabl y the other way round. Anyhoo, this animation looks like a great piece of animation history, and supposedly is supposed to have influenced great Japanese animators such as Hayao Miyazaki of Studio Ghibli fame. Put together by renowned animator Paul Grimault and based on a story by Hans Christian Anderson, it sounds amazing. I haven’t seen it yet, and unfortunately isn’t on Netflix. IMDB has got in it the DB, and further research suggests the French DVD doesn’t seem to have English subtitles.
