I used to watch this film when I was 3, maybe 4, I know it was years ago and I'm 20 now so the memory of this film (even if slightly vague) has stuck with me for a long, long time. Films don't usually have this effect on me especially ones from what seems like light years ago so I think this one was particularly special.
Although, like it's been said the animation isn't overly dazzling but the way the plot keeps you so emotionally hooked and drawn into the characters lives, is fantastic! (I remember crying at the end every time!).
I have a son myself, and I would love him to see it to show him what things I used to watch as a youngster, and to show him how things have changed. If he's anything like me, he would love it too, but it's a rare film to find, and I've searched everywhere! I'm not sure how helpful this comment will be to anyone but I do recommend if you see it anywhere at all it wouldn't be a waste of money. It's a lovely film and I have fond memories of sitting right in front of the TV screen watching it (several times in a row!).
