The Triplets of Belleville<\/a>·<\/a> was the most delightful film I’ve seen in a long time. I give it my “best animated feature” award 2003-2004. <\/p>\n

It’s best not to know too much about the story, I think, going into it, so I won’t say anything here. (Why am I even bothering to write about it at all, then? So you’ll go see it!) <\/p>\n

My favorite little detail was in the Triplets’ apartment: just for a second or so, a poster for Jacques Tati<\/a>·<\/a>’s Les Vacances de Monsieur Hulot<\/a>·<\/a> appears. The film pays homage to Tati throughout, and most likely alludes to other French films and directors that were beyond my surface knowledge. <\/p>\n

If you want a more detailed description of the film, check out Roger Ebert’s review<\/a>·<\/a>. I have to agree with his hesitant characterization of the film as “Marquis de Sade meets Lance Armstrong.” <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
