We've done some films where it comes AFTER the music credits, that's just absurd.<br /><br />The script (which is remarkably beautiful) called for a few more graphic sequences along the lines of the photo still. I suspect they were edit room casualities. In that context there were 4 or 5 of this brief episodes (the lion was another -I had read it more stylized in the script). The drawn animation would be a culmination of these other sequences, a sort of pay off of the set ups.<br /><br />I think its a beautiful, humane film. Even though I think our piece could've been better, I'm very proud to have contributed.roconnorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04933040935053560675noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3275154027288684412.post-74705904556683529082009-11-18T08:34:24.210-05:002009-11-18T08:34:24.210-05:00The film is quite good, probably one of my favorit...The film is quite good, probably one of my favorites this year. (It's a fallow year for movies.) The acting was great, particularly Robin Wright, and the script was the best of Rebecca Miller's works. The last 15 mins. didn't quite work satisfactorily for me, but any woman I've met disagrees.<br /><br />I was a little confused as to why there was only one animated insert. Just as you've adjusted to the animated sequence, it's over, and there are no more - though you've been set up to expect others. It was pleasing to see something that was not the traditional gag-cartoon animation. Nice job.<br /><br />I also thought your credit was a good one. I'd forgotten to look for it, but couldn't miss it in the credits.Michael Spornhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02018522723674960270noreply@blogger.com
