See Hear podcast Episode 9 - Allegro Non Troppo
Finally, the whole crew are back for episode 9 of See Hear.
This time around, we discuss “Allegro Non Troppo”, Bruno
Bozzetto’s 1976 parody / tribute to Fantasia. The live action (in black and
white) features a sadistic conductor and an artless producer gather an
orchestra of old women (brought in on a cattle truck) and an animator (taken
from a prison in solitary confinement) to create something never done before –
animation set to classical music – a shame that someone called Prisney or
Grisney claims he’s done it before. The cartoons range from funny and mocking
to heart-breakingly sad. We are treated
to tales of evolution, capitalism, lust, Adam and Eve, conformity….and a Cossack
dancing gorilla. There’s elements of Python, Fellini and the Marx Brothers.
Tune in and hear our thoughts.
