So, Bigshot is this quirky little piece from 2013, directed by Maurice Huvelin. It's an animated comedy, but not your typical one. The pacing is a bit erratic, which oddly fits the chaotic themes it tackles—think legends and historical characters thrown together in a mix that feels like a wild, colorful fever dream. The visuals are pretty distinct, with a style that almost demands you to look closer, whether through binoculars or a magnifying glass. There's something charmingly absurd about its premise, all revolving around these characters—BIG, FAT & Didier—who seem plucked from a variety of sources. It's less about coherent storytelling and more about the vibe, a playful homage to the ridiculousness of fame and storytelling in media.
