Watched Triplettes of Belleville the other day and enjoyed it immensely. I don't normally enjoy cartoons, but this film worked because it was so imaginative and funny. With hardly any dialogue, the movie tells a wonderful story about a young man training to be a Tour de France rider with the help of a tough and loveable grandmother, with whom he lives. When kidnapped by the French Mafia, the grandmother goes to New York to save her grandson from a life of hard labor. Hilarious cultural statements about the French and the Americans, this was a film seemed to come entirely out of left field and I loved it.
