ONE OF THE BEST SHORT FILMS EVER MADE!!!! RESTORED!!!!
|
I used to study in a school where there was a film theater. Back in the 70's, I still remember once a week all the kids and teachers together watching movies. THE RED BALLOON was one of them. It was instant love.
Simply put, this is one of the best short film ever made. No kidding. Put them all together and this film will easily be in the all-time top five. An absolute work of art!
It tells the beautiful story of a young boy and his only friend: a big red balloon. Their friendship is true and the living balloon follows the little boy wherever he goes. They play with each other, trust each other... they are together for good!
A very simple and beautiful story... one that makes you remember how good it is to be a kid. ...all the possibilities... all the imagination and the innocence we lose when we grow up. This film will touch everyone who sees it. The ending is unforgettable.
Congratulations to Criterion for releasing again (they released it previously on Laserdisc, many years ago), this time on DVD, such a magical film... restored to its full glory. All the Technicolor glory with beautiful colors that I am sure nobody who sees it will ever forget.
A true cinematic experience that is rare nowadays - in a world where children entertainment is populated by violence, sex and razzle-dazzling special effects...
This is a true great film for everybody. |
