I seem to have walked on this discussion list into the middle of a cartoon discussion. Not quite what i expected, but hey, i'm cool, i can handle it. krivas@codon.nih.gov writes:
But my favorite animated flick of all time has to be "The Last Unicorn." I even have it on videotape. It was the only cartoon I knew of that actually had curse words in it ("damn" and "hell" - not really that harsh now, but to an 8 year old, they're pretty strong).
I always loved that movie. It's based off of the Peter S. Beagle book by the same title, an absolutely lovely story that i've always thought of as a children's story for adults. We have an ancient copy lying around the house somewhere (although it seems to me that i looked for it when i was home over Christmas break and to my great dismay could not locate it anywhere), but i've never been able to find it anywhere else, so i suppose it's quite out of print (either that, or i've always looked in all the wrong places). Ah well. But on another note - and here is where i attepmt to fit Belle and Sebastian back into the picture - i have another movie to watch sometime soon. My friend, upon learning that B&S has a song about her hero, loaned me her copy of "Don't Look Back," the Bob Dylan movie. Has anyone seen this? I'm not really sure how much watching the movie will enhance my B&S listening experiences, but the anticipation is still kind of exciting.

the movie is great. dylan is revelaed as a subversive, precociously intelligent youngster who messes with the minds of the establishment figures around him. the flip side is dylan as the vulnerable artist, singing with a [famous] friend in the privacy of his hotel room. there's more, too. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .
