This film is so vibrant- it leaps off the screen with gorgeous colors, fluid movement, exciting music, and a beautiful story. It is like peering through the broken, rose-tinted glasses of the past- both the past of a whole generation and the very personal memories of a talented and lonely composer. If you love Jazz and enjoy animation, this film is definitely right up your alley. If you have access to the "making of" documentary, be sure to take the extra time and view it. A marvelous effort that involved many great musicians and artists.
