replies: text: Sylvain Chomet has commented on his use of satire in many interviews, and the most obvious indication is the overweight statue of liberty.  The comment is completely justified in the article, in fact, I'd say necessary. --Robojames
Can any one help me disscus whether Les Triplettes de Belleville is influenced by the silent era/ silent film? The animation itself is silent after all. thank you

Let us not forget that the introduction takes place in Belleville, not in Paris.  I'm going to remove that sentence. Esn 05:49, 5 September 2006 (UTC)

message: Kyrie from Great Mass in C minor (Mozart) is used in the film.  The director specifically talks about how he really wanted to use the piece on the dvd special features.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.207.224.116 (talk) 19:47, 27 December 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Additions needed for the soundtrack section 

message: Could anyone add an ending to the plot, as it seems to be written like the back cover of a book, saying you should see the movie so you can find out the ending. Shouldn't the whole plot be included instead? Captain Gamma (talk) 02:21, 5 May 2009 (UTC)

message: She looks very stereotypically Iberian...  She sings in Portuguese...  Her name is Souza...  The article does not mention this?  Not sure how the appropriate way to get it in would be, but it seems like a good thing to have.  174.21.2.129 (talk) 06:43, 22 January 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: She looks like a caricature of Portuguese emigrants in France: still attached to their culture (as expressed by Fado singing and her un-sophisticated appearance), while at the same time coaching her son with a seemingly inhuman strength (pedaling on the trike and later on the paddle boat) into a very French tradition of cycling. Then again...this very sentence would qualify as original research...and we don't want that! The film went by almost unnoticed in Portugal, btw Galf (talk) 09:27, 20 March 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  No mention of Souza's nationality? 

message: I just watched the film a second time. I came here because I couldn't make out the last two sentences, spoken in French, as we see Champion as an old man. (Or, for that matter, who spoke them.) Anyway, what surprised me was the classification of this film as a comedy. I would call it a dramedy at best, or a drama with comedic elements/moments, or maybe even a black comedy. I mean honestly a pretty dark, moody and depressing film overall. I found myself feeling painfully sorry for the sweet Souza, and the plight of the cyclists, and the dog. Just my two cents...  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.202.66.108 (talk) 19:45, 21 September 2013 (UTC)

message: The numbers where obviously wrong since the source Boxofficemojo is missing e.g. the production countries Belgium and Canada and contains only 1 week of Germany. (http://www.boxofficemojo.com/movies/?page=intl&id=tripletsofbelleville.htm) --88.77.6.31 (talk) 22:40, 23 July 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: That does not make them wrong just incomplete. If you can find a source with the extra countries then it can be replaced but the removal of sourced info is improper. MarnetteD|Talk 22:45, 23 July 2015 (UTC)
