Poor puppet dude. But I can see where you're coming from. It did drag a bit and the ending didn't really 'end' anything for me. I think it's just a different way to tell a story and it was awesome that they decided to use as little dialogue as possible. I dunno, I really liked it! But Chomet's Old Woman and the Pigeons is still his best work I think xD less

I was left wondering if the old clown still tried to kill himselve later or ended up on the streets like the ventriloquist. As for the girl, I kept wondering why... morethanks for your comments. I agree it was sad to see the old world entertainers of vauldville. I was left wondering if the old clown still tried to kill himselve later or ended up on the streets like the ventriloquist. As for the girl, I kept wondering why no one from her village was looking for her when she stowed away or wht the magican felt any responsibility for her at all.

About Me
Gradurated back in 2005 from Columbia Collage Chicago. Still trying to get a demo reel put together. Life had other plans for me when I gradurated, I got married had a son and now I'mgoing to make a 110% effort to getting a portfolio and one minute demo of animation. I am currently in school for computer programming. If animation still dosn't pan out as a career, I'll at least be then doing something I enjoy. If their is anything else you want to know just ask.
Interests
Animation, Music, Ancient History, (at one point I wanted to be a history teacher). Comics, computers and anything tech related.
