Many years ago I remember seeing an amazing animated movie called The Triplets of Belleville it had me fixed with it’s slightly bizarre characters and it’s wonderful storyline.
Now Sylvain Chomat is back with another animated movie called “The Illusionist”.
The Illusionist is one of a dying breed of stage entertainers. With emerging rock stars stealing his thunder, he is forced to accept increasingly obscure assignments in fringe theatres, at garden parties and in bars and cafes. However, while performing in a village pub off the west coast of Scotland, he encounters Alice, an innocent young girl, who will change his life forever.
I’m really looking forward to seeing this movie which opens in UK cinemas on the 20th August.
