See Hear podcast Episode 9 - Allegro Non Troppo

Finally, the whole crew are back for episode 9 of See Hear. This time around, we discuss “Allegro Non Troppo”, Bruno Bozzetto’s 1976 parody / tribute to Fantasia. The live action (in black and white) features a sadistic conductor and an artless producer gather an orchestra of old women (brought in on a cattle truck) and an animator (taken from a prison in solitary confinement) to create something never done before – animation set to classical music – a shame that someone called Prisney or Grisney claims he’s done it before. The cartoons range from funny and mocking to heart-breakingly sad.  We are treated to tales of evolution, capitalism, lust, Adam and Eve, conformity….and a Cossack dancing gorilla. There’s elements of Python, Fellini and the Marx Brothers. Tune in and hear our thoughts.  You can download or subscribe to the podcast from iTunes (search for” See Hear Podcast” or download / stream from http://seehear.podbean.com Join the podcast Facebook group athttps://www.facebook.com/groups/seehearpodcast/.
