French animation seems to have a magic that makes it easy to spot that they are different. Whether it's silhouette animation, hand-drawn animation throughout the film, or watercolor-style animation, there is always imagination, unique French humor and eye-catching style. The following is to introduce you to a good French animated film - "Crazy Dating Mirador"
"Crazy Dating Mirador" tells the story of a mother-in-law named Susha who lives with her beloved grandson Chabin. After Chabin became a participant in the Tour de France, he was taken by gangsters and forced to participate in the black market bicycle race, and countless physically weak runners were shot and killed.
In order to save her grandson, Su Sha's mother-in-law took the old dog on the road, and even relied on the cruise ship pulled by the dog to chase the gangster's cruise ship across the ocean, in this absurd and humorous plot, with a touching determination.
In the case of unfamiliar life, Su Sha's mother-in-law has no money and no power, and can only live in the bridge hole to barely survive. Even though life was so difficult, she still made fun of it, using the bicycle circle to knock out a dance music learned on TV, which attracted three old ladies to entertain themselves with their old arms and legs. These three old ladies were the "Three Sisters of Beauty" who had unlimited scenery, but unfortunately, they were old and had long been forgotten by fans, living in chaotic and noisy crowded apartments, using frogs and tadpoles as food every day, a few small golden people had become obsolete, and the photos of the performances were full of dust.
In order to make ends meet, the three sisters perform on a small stage in the restaurant, their instruments are refrigerators, newspapers and vacuum cleaners, and Susha's mother-in-law joins them with bicycle rings. Subsequently, the four old ladies formed a group to fight the gang, and with the courage of composure and wit, they successfully rescued Chabin from the rain of bullets from the gangster.
I was very impressed by the end of the animation. Many years passed, and Chabin, an old man with two white sideburns, watched the TV and said to the empty seat on the left: "The movie is over, Grandma." This is the last line of the whole play, and the only line of the silent and autistic Chabin. Grandma finally opened his heart with deep love, and even many years after Grandma's death, it still warmed him.
Although the title of the film is "Crazy Dating Beautiful City", nothing in the film is beautiful, everything is simple, simple, shabby, and full of a strong nostalgic atmosphere. The story of French animation does not have a Japanese anime serial, nor does it have a sequel to american animation, it is an ordinary life of one period and a meeting, with the French humor in the bones, the extraordinary struggle against the world. Just like the end of Susha's mother-in-law: from the ordinary and trivial life, to the unwilling social rules to declare war, and then to the ordinary trivial life.
