While I was home over the weekend my mom showed me a great film,
Peter & the Wolf. It is an Oscar-winning Polish-British-Norwegian model animation film written and directed by Suzie Templeton. It is set to Sergei Prokofiev's music, also called
Peter & the Wolf, which was written in 1936. The film itself has no words, but the music itself does a wonderful job of accompanying it.

The character development of Peter and all of the animals is one of the best things about the film, I think (I especially like the crow that can't fly) and the use of stop motion is a wonderful break from the common computer animated films today. Definitely worth watching (and apparently you can find the whole thing on youtube so...)!
