Saw "The Triplets of Belleville" last night-- trippy little movie. It started stronger than it finished, but overall I enjoyed it. The movie's in French, except for the first and last sentences, which I assume were dubbed. No subtitles, though. That may seem weird, but it really didn't need them since there was hardly any dialogue. If you've ever seen any of Jacques Tati's "M. Hulot" films, just picture that same kind of almost-silent treatment, except more surreal. (I wouldn't have made this connection, except that at one point in Triplets you can see posters for "Les Vacances de M. Hulot" and "Gertie the Dinosaur"...)
