JACK'S STORY
THE JOURNEY OF ONE HEART
The magnificent love story of JACK AND THE CUCKOO CLOCK HEART CGI animated fairy tale is set in an exciting period full of fabulous inventions, eccentric characters and fantastic adventures 
taking place in late-19th century Edinburgh in Scotland where Little Jack is born on a day so cold that his heart remains frozen. His life is saved by inserting a cuckoo clock in its place, but it will work only if 
he observes three golden rules: He must never touch the hands of the clock, he must control his anger and he must never fall in love. When Jack sets eyes on a young girl singing on a street corner, the hands
of his clock-heart begin to race: Jack is prepared to do anything to find her again and so, like a Don Quichotte, he sets out on a quest for love that will take him from the Scottish lochs to Paris, and from there to Andalusia.

I saw Jack and the Cuckoo Clock Heart trailer in the cinema in France last December. Im glad they have an english version.
ReplyDeletethey do, but it's a bit strange since English actors have to talk extremely fast to catch up with the French dialogues :)
DeleteThe first images my done thinking, a Tim Burton movie, but I would have never thought that ceded by Luc Besson, Beautiful trailer
ReplyDeleteCheers .
they were inspired by Tim, weren't they? :) But it looks more sophisticated than Tim's films
DeleteJack and the Cuckoo Clock Heart has some great animation! I can just imagine the problems he's going to have after he falls in love!
ReplyDeleteit's a gorgeous animation, isn't it? So full of creativity and passion
DeleteI noticed the Tim Burton influence as well. The lines and the palettes used are much like his.
ReplyDelete"Just don't fall in love" his mother said. And of course, that's exactly what happens. Looks like a good one darling.
it has such a lovely message, doesn't it? And we always fall for the sad characters, don't we?
DeleteWe are drawn inexorably to tragedy my dear....
Deleteit's because we have good hearts and want to protect the sad ones, dear
DeleteI don't watch many animated films, but this one looks so amazing and charming.
ReplyDeletedelightfully charming
DeleteI'm all for passion and acceptance. I love Andalusia. I've been there plenty of times and I never get bored. Still don't know why that is.
ReplyDelete'tis possible you were a Spanish stud in some of the previous lives, Sir Blue :)
DeleteAs Spanish as can be. It can't be so there's your answer, amigo :)
Delete'tis a true riddle
Delete'tis.
Deletealways is
DeleteNow that I live down the street from my grandkids I'll be paying more attention to these animated posts Dezzy.
ReplyDeletethanks.
you do? So that was what the movement was about! So nice!
DeleteJACK AND THE CUCKOO CLOCK HEART looks an absolute delight!
ReplyDeleteagreed, Wendy, glad the Middle Earth likes it
DeleteLooks pretty good to me?
ReplyDeletesure does
Deletelooks a little like (art-wise) Tim Burton's films but not very gothic
ReplyDeletewhich is a good thing, we hate gothic
DeleteI know. Dezz hated my Bluebat avatar so much, I had to destroy it or he would send his army of hot penguins to whip the goth out of me.
Deletethey do like to whip people.... especially bats.... they're jealous of their capes..... which are more elegant than their tuxedos
DeleteHe is Scottish, but sounds english?
ReplyDeleteIt looks great visually.
and is made in France LOL
DeleteLooks like a cute film. This is when I want grandkids. Then, I remember…not yet! The boys are still too young!
ReplyDeleteAnnzie is also seeing grandkids these days :)
DeleteThis film looks a bit nutty, which is right up my alley! I know you don't like Burton, but I am a huge fan of his weirdness, and if he was an inspiration, I will love this one too!
ReplyDeleteI loved his earlier stop motion puppet films, but not the more recent ones
DeleteI love the sound of this story. And I love Samantha Barks.
ReplyDeleteit should be a really nice animated movie
