Caprino's Most Wonderful Folktale

[ayric · 7/10 · 21 April 2002]

Ivo Caprino is probably the most famous Norwegian film name, and I have not forgotten about Liv Ullmann. He passed away of old age last year. He has earned his tremendous reputation mostly because of his feature-length animated film Flåklypa Grand Prix, but there is not a Norwegian child (or adult) who hasn't seen some of his infamous shorts as well, such as Reve-enka. This short and beautiful story is filled with love and nostalgia. No one ever told a folktale like Ivo Caprino - King of Norwegian animation.

A sweet, but a predictable story

[mieriks · 6/10 · 11 August 2022]

This movie has the basics of a good story, but it gets predictable later into the movie. It has repetitive scenes, which are one of the rules of being a fairytale, but therefore, it could get boring. Anyway, still a recommending family enjoyment.
