Les Contes de la Nuit (2011)


Gorgeous. Just breathtaking. Michel Ocelot took a break from making movies about little Kirikou and treated us to this gem of a film, in which all of the stories are told with the characters in silhouette. It's a gorgeous choice that allows for stunning backdrops. It's also an anthology, and this works like the Thousand and One Nights or the Decameron. It's absolutely wonderful stuff.
