On the Record

About This Movie

So, 'On the Record' is this peculiar animated film from '88 that features Titles, a crocodile that’s also part Big Ben. The atmosphere is quirky, almost surreal, which really sets it apart from other animations of the time. It has this unique charm, blending whimsical adventures with a British cultural backdrop. The pacing can feel a bit erratic, but that's part of its odd appeal. Animation-wise, the practical effects used for Titles give him a tangible quality that’s rare for animated characters. The performances, while not what you'd expect in a traditional sense, add a depth to the narrative. It’s definitely an oddity that sparks conversation — not your run-of-the-mill animated feature, for sure.
