So there's this animated gem called 'anyone lived in a pretty how town', narrated by the late Dr. Jane Goodall, which gives it an interesting layer of depth right off the bat. The animation style really enhances the poem’s whimsical yet poignant vibe, creating a lush backdrop for the love story of 'anyone' and 'no one'. The pacing is a bit languid, but it perfectly mirrors the quiet, almost melancholic nature of the poem and the themes of connection in a world that often feels isolating. The practical effects blend seamlessly, giving the visuals a tactile quality that makes the whole experience feel intimate. It’s a unique piece that stands out for its artistic dedication to Cummings' work.
This film is somewhat of a rarity, with physical copies becoming increasingly hard to find. It has seen limited releases, mainly in niche markets, which drives up collector interest. The blend of animation and narration from a figure like Dr. Jane Goodall adds a unique touch that appeals to both poetry enthusiasts and animation collectors alike.
