delightful,thoughtful,sad, 28 November 2002
10/10
Author: amethyst2 from Slovenia

This animated movie is one of the best ones I've seen. Forget Disney movies - although the animation may not match that of Disney cartoons, this one has much more to offer otherwise: messages of love and unity, of loneliness and contentedness and much more. It also points to man's folly of whale hunting and thus it somewhat resembles Melville's Moby Dick. I recommend this to anyone and everyone.
