fine whine

So tonight Jessica and I watched Belleville rendez-vous or as it has been dubbed (har har) The triplets of Belleville. It was unlike pretty much anything I’d seen before, though I’d said that not too long ago about the incredibly bizarre anime FLCL, but for different reasons.”Different” is really the watchword for either, come to think of it.

I’ll likely be returning to Belleville soon, as I am sure to have missed many of its lush details and tiny gags, much like Jacques Tati’s Hulot films, one of which makes a poster appearance in the cartoon. As for FLCL, I’ve been reading things about it and the more I read, the more it makes sense — like Mulholland Drive, but without the lesbian sex.
