A Japanese animated comedy directed by Isao Takahata.
A Japanese family consists of the mother, father, grandmother, son and daughter. They live in an ordinary city and have sitcom style problems.
If Crayon Shin Chan did not have crude humor, this is what it would be. That being said, I liked this film. The animation style was extremely simplified to mimic a child's drawing. According to Wikipedia, the entire film was painted entirely in computers. There were many small plots which had little to do with one another, but what this did was develop the characters excellently. The vignette plots all focused on universal subjects in family life like neighborhood noise, a lost child, a lost ball, food decisions and forgetting items. The only negative remarks that I can make are that the daughter was under-featured and the all-important question: whose neighbors are they? I did not see any vignettes which included neighbors. I rate this awesome because of animation style and humor. Watch it!
In ancient Egyptian mythology, a dead person's soul would be weighed against the feather of truth in a ritual called a psychostasy. If their soul was lighter than the feather, it would ascend into the afterlife. Heavy souls were devoured by Maat, eater of the dead. Good films go to hard drive heaven while the recycle bin eats the rest.
