wonderful movie.  mostly done with traditional animation, but also has scenes integrating cg and live action.  funny and sad at he same time, rather like jean-pierre jeunet doing a cartoon.
 
 another neat clip, french music video, with a combination of different animation techniques.

Going to see the Triplets of Belleville this evening. Thx for posting the trailer.
 
 I'm very lucky to have a very cool - one large classic room - theatre close by that only shows these type of flix.
 
 Bubba Ho-Tep finishes a run there this weekend - Triplets takes it's place.
 
 If you like Bruce Campbell you gotta see Bubba HT. It's so much more than a horror B movie. Not gonna win any oscars..but it'll make you smile.    :D

what tripped me out was when the old lady runs across the triplets in "new york" or whatever.  they start doing slave hymnn/rythyms and then give each other jive high-fives.  wtf!?!  never mind the fishing for frogs...there are so many details to the movie that are exceptional.  i'm prolly going to see it again, especially since i missed the 10 min short that played before it.

yeah, the frogs were weird...my question is, if everyone in belleville is fat, why weren't the triplets?

I thought the depiction of the dog was brilliant.
