Product: Animal Farm
Rating: 5.0
I made my kid watch it and she loved it.
She had to do a study on Animal Farm for honors English last year,and was able to grasp immediately that this was not "really about farm animals" but a political and social story for all of us. She's seen other versions of the story,too, but this remains a favorite and she's watched it several times. It's good for both kids and adults as a teaching tool, as well as entertaining in an uncomfortable sort of way. Both of us enjoyed deciding on which actual person or which group each character represented.If you're looking for fine animation with wonderful musical scores in ...skip it-it is a wonderfully remastered 50+ year old film, but it is still 50 year old animation techniques and dialogue. If you're looking for something mostly true to the book ,but shown in animation that makes it even easier to grasp...this is the one you want-best version IMHO.
