A charming film filled with fantasy and an homage to Federico Fellini

Rating: 9/10 (3 January 2004)

The film moves gracefully from start to finish. The main characters are people you would like to meet and know more about. The characters in the father's tales are a true homage to the characters in Fellini's Amarcord and 81/2. The world of fantasy does not only need hobbits to make it interesting.
