I first encountered the Moonbot Studios with their enchanting film, "The Fantastic Flying Books of Morris Lessmore."
"Silent" features Morris Lessmore and new character, a young girl that loves the movies.
The film begins with Morris Lessmore working a moving picture machine, and the young girl creating the music for their simple film. One thing leads to another, and the movie machine goes kaput. What will they do now?
In the midst of a sudden downpour, the two run for cover, seeking shelter under an overhang of a movie theater. The little girl notices a sliver of light coming out from under the door. Should she go in? What magical adventure awaits them?
The movie is only 2 minutes long, but is an enchanting look at movies and the music that fill them. The two art forms work hand in hand to create art.
This film is a love letter to the art of film, movies, the cinema, art, and creation. Now streaming on Netflix, 5 stars.
