When ' Sight and Sound ' put their list of one hundred films together this should have been in my humble opinion the Number One choice, nut then they probably had not had a preview of it. Maybe in ten years time it will reach that elevated height of critical acclaim, and we will all know why. A boy, a mole, a fox and a horse all journey together in the most beautiful animation I have ever seen. No spoilers but the journey is full of so called simple wisdom, and above all love even for our enemies. As it happens the fox is not the enemy we fear, but a being in our universal family of love. A film that lasts such a short time; such a short journey of time and yet it takes us so far. To a place that we should be and should strive to reach. The Number One of the future.
