The マウス and child are a pair of toy mice, joined によって the hands and operated によって clockwork. The story charts their beginning in a toy store, their purchase, discarding, and pursuit によって a malicious ラット named Manny who runs a casino and uses broken toys as his labor force, and ultimately, their quest to become self-winding.
This movie has been a favourite of mine since I first saw it as a young child. It differs from a lot of children's stories in that it explores such philosophical topics. From the psychic frog, to the 質問 of infinity - a dog 食 can features numerous times throughout the movie, and the characters speculate that some profound wisdom lies beyond the 'last visible dog' A very eloquent metaphor symbolising their journey.
The 音楽 is provided によって Roger Kellaway, featuring a lovely introductory song that is beautifully reflective lyrically of the tale itself.
This movie is highly thought-provoking with its powerful themes, and is frequently disturbing due to its portrayal of life's utter cruelty. It is as far removed from ディズニー as it's possible to be, this is a dark and poignant tale, once viewed, it is unforgettable.
"A dog shall rise: a ラット shall fall"
