Waltz With Bashir

[everybodywakeup]

Has anyone here seen it? I saw it this morning at the Palm Springs film festival and it was probably the best animated film I've ever seen. And it was especially interesting in light of the recent war in Gaza, because it documented the 1982 invasion of Lebanon and the massacre in the Sabra and Shatila camps. Oh and it just won best foreign film at the golden globes, and is shortlisted for the oscars for both best foreign film and best animated feature, so you know it must be kinda good.

Just saw this. Deserves a bump. One of the best animated movies I've seen. I think it was extremely brave for the director to make a documentary in animation.
