by Roger Mauge ‧ RELEASE DATE: Sept. 15, 1962
Reminiscent of The Red Balloon, this adaptation of an award winning film about a boy who purchases a goldfish, leaves him in the company of a canary and a cat, and returns to find things just as he left them, is depicted in a series of startling photographs in color and black and white. What really happens on a quiet afternoon in a simple Parisian apartment involves the amazing antics of three traditional enemies who wage war and forge a miraculous peace. Children lucky enough to have seen the film will want this more permanent preservation. Others will participate as a secret observer in the ensuing drama.
