One film we didn't get to review last week - that's right, we can't hit 'em all - is Paprika, the mind-bending anime showing at the Dallas and Plano Angelikas. One look at the poster art tells you this is one eye-tickling ride. Directed by Satoshi Kon, the manga mastermind behind Millennium Actress and Tokyo Godfathers, Paprika uses the age-old theme of blurring dreams and reality to conjure the kinds of images - a marching band of frogs, china dolls run amok - that you find only in, well, anime. Free associative and endlessly creative, it's well worth a look. |
