The Painting - Sage Guzman's Review
Reviewer Sage Guzman is 9 years old and a student at Holly Avenue Elementary School.
With an extraordinary story this unique, detailed, French animated film makes you feel as if you're with the characters in scenes jumping in and out of different paintings with different colors, emotions, and even different styles of art. The main characters are Lola, a halfie who is a curious girl with a never-ending imagination (she is my favorite); Magenta, a dainty little boy in a red uniform who is from a war painting; and Ramo, who is an artistic aldon in a forbidden love with another halfie.
Together the friends set out on a journey through the art world created by the painter who never finished the halfies or sketchies. My favorite part of the movie is when Lola enters the forbidden forests, because there are so many whimsical plants curling out as if they are alive, and it makes you feel like you're a part of the whole scene. I would recommend this movie for kids 8 and up, because there is a tiny part in the movie where a woman is naked in a painting. If you are a creative person with a huge imagination, trust me; you will absolutely fall in love with this fantastic film!
The Painting plays May 5, 2013, at 11am at The Aero Theatre. Buy tickets in advance through this link to make a donation to the school of your choice.
