Nightmare Before Christmas

[MoonCat]

Scroll down past the article about clothes and there's a vid of the opening scene.
One of my favorite movies, especially at this time of year. I love Jack Skellington!

Just call me Sally

It's as far away as a mouse-click on Netflix for me, and I'm TOTALLY going to watch it next week.

One of the influences on Selick's work on this film was Ladislas Starevich, an animator whose work I stumbled upon literally just a few weeks ago, and have been leafing through with interest. His "Le Roman de Renard" is probably the first-ever stop motion feature film, and it's on YouTube. I've been watching it in sections.

I also got a chance to see "The Man who Laughs" a couple of years ago, which is definitely another grandparent to this one. So are Cab Calloway's old rotoscopes of "Minnie the Moocher." The roots to "Nightmare" are CRAZY-long.

I love that movie. I have a handbag with Jack on it; every time I bring it when I go out, someone compliments me on it.

My favourite singer, singing my favourite song from Nightmare:
