Do animals talk in this dimension?

I had been looking forward for several months to tonight's screening of Scarred Hearts (Inimi cicatrizate, 2016) at the HFA, but at the last minute I decided that perhaps I did not actually feel like watching a movie about being chronically-terminally ill in the face of rising fascism and instead spatch and I walked to the Brattle Theatre and saw Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse (2018).

I'm delighted we did. It was great. The visuals were as excellent as promised and the storytelling just as strong. I may or may not write up it properly whenever my ability to think returns, but it was definitely a better choice than TB and World War II.

I really liked this! To the extent that we were 2/3rds through before I realised that the air con wasn’t working, and it was super muggy :D Such a solid, well characterised story, and the art was fantastic.

Aw! That's a great tribute to a film. I hope you did not melt.

Such a solid, well characterised story, and the art was fantastic.

The story and style were so beautifully in service of one another. I loved the different comic-book techniques.
