Coraline.

    I think people take the movie Coraline (directed by Henry Selick) for granted. For those who are unacquainted with the film, its about a girl who moves to a new house, a new house with a deadly secret. She finds her self in an alternate reality that is just the opposite of her real life, slowly this other reality seduces her and she wants to stay. But that is when the danger starts, nothing is as it seems. She learns that she should be more careful of what she wishes for.

    The film is done in stop motion animation, that should be a gold star right there- I'd rip my hair out if I tired to make one of those. The sound track alone is incredible. There are certain scenes in which Coraline is happy, and the music is both happy and eery- almost foreshadowing that this isn't right and that something is going to happen to disrupt the happiness. The way the sculptors managed to show the emotion of the characters so perfectly certainly helped. The film itself was beautiful, the music was hypnotizing and the morals were easy to apply to ones self. Strong supporter of Coraline, right here. Thats all I have to say.

-Clem.
