So, 'The Donkey Who Drank the Moon' is this quirky little gem from '88 that really captures a certain whimsical atmosphere. Set in a picturesque village in the Corbieres, it’s framed around a grandfather sharing these charming tales with his grandson. The stories range from three youngsters off to Paris to learn French, to a pig becoming mayor, which adds a surreal yet relatable twist. The pacing feels relaxed, almost contemplative, allowing you to soak in the humor and warmth of each tale. The performances carry a unique charm, balancing comedy and drama seamlessly. It's not flashy, but those practical effects and storytelling techniques give it an authentic feel that’s hard to find in more modern flicks. Definitely a unique watch for collectors.
