Anyone ever heard of this movie? I just found out about earlier this week and looked around for a good working torrent for it and I finally managed to see it. It looks fantastic and is a bit dark near the end.

plot synopsis taken from wikipedia
QuoteThe story is set in the 9th century. Twelve year old Brendan is educated by his uncle, Abbot Cellach, who holds a firm grip on his nephew and expects him to follow in his footsteps. One day, Brendan meets Brother Aidan, a master illustrator who shows him the beauty of art and stimulates his creativity and fantasy. Finally, Brendan decides to break free in search of his dream: completing the valuable Book of Kells. On his journey through the forest, he has to face his biggest fears.

its really good

the hyper stylization makes the characters look like wooden puppets (with 'dolljoints') in parts though

it's a great film. i got to see it on the imax screen and after the directors talked about it and showed us some of the original hand-drawn cels. very clean linework and just as beautiful as the final product. i also got to have dinner with them the night before that, they're very nice people and they care a lot about story and animation

This is up for an Oscar. I was reading about it in TIME. I hope it's as good as you all say or I'll be devastated.
