Current Mood: Screaming in confused consternation at my husband about "The King and the Mockingbird"

This movie is basically "The Thief and the Cobbler" of France, but MUCH more confused and mysterious???

Like Le Mazinger Z shows up halfway through and everyone's just like "okay" cuz at this point here have been flying bat-cops and and living paintings?

And so many loose threads at the end??? lots of unfinished business, plot-wise?

Also at some point an Actual Goddamn Bear appears and starts playing seeing-eye-bear to a blind hurdy-gurdy player and NO ONE ACKNOWLEDGES IT, EVER

The movie is extremely beautiful (except where it's really not) and VERY weird and I wouldn't call it "good," but it's DEFINITELY worth experiencing.
