    A Christmas classic?

    Mel Tormè was wonderful - a great reading performance. The short is trippy - in fact, I think this would be amazing with the proper mushrooms. The animation is a bit crude, but it adds to the kitch. I am not sure, but it looks to have been made with the aid of early computer animation.

    The story is good (perhaps a bit forced), it just is somewhat lost with the rather crude animation. The good thing is that it is only about 22 minutes long. All in all, i think it is worth checking out, just do not have high expectations. I am keeping this with our other Christmas movies so it can be part of our holiday experience.
