Fuzzules to René Laloux films, Alejandro Jodorowsky, David Lynch, Urusei Yatsura, ITÔ Junji, Kaze no Tani no Nausicaä, Faith and Emily Hubley and countless French comics (and I'm not even mentioning the several-generation descends of them that are Selick's Coraline and Cameron's Avatar, except that I just have). Nothing, and least of all TV documentaries shot on HD video, narrated by David Attenborough and accompanied by Samuel-Barber's-Adagio-for-Strings-like music, can compare when it comes to the alien to seeing Jean Painlevé's films, with Pierre Conté's music, from film.

Current music: Samuel Barber – Knoxville: Summer of 1915, which perhaps thanks to having words has thankfully not been substituted to over-familiarity and which I remember actually rather enjoying.
