For the grand finale of my film-focused research writing course at Seattle Pacific University, I treated my finals-weary students to a screening and discussion of The Secret of Kells. I didn’t even realize until I was loading up the movie that, lo and behold… it was St. Patrick’s Day. And so, another audience fell in love with one of the most extraordinary animated movies ever made.
The Secret of Kells becomes more precious to me every time I see it — and every time I listen to the soundtrack. And I’ve watched the follow-up film, Song of the Sea, become a favorite to so many moviegoing friends.
So my pulse quickens watching these teaser videos for Wolfwalkers. Tomm Moore and his amazing Cartoon Saloon team are making magic again. Thanks to Ken Priebe for bringing this to my attention soon after it was posted today!
