The Most Important feels like a hidden gem in the animation world of the early '70s. The visuals are surprisingly vibrant, with a hand-drawn quality that pulls you in, and the pacing is quite contemplative, almost meditative at times. The themes touch on existential questions that resonate deeply, making it more than just a kids' film. While the director remains a mystery, the craftsmanship shines through the practical effects and character designs. There’s a charm in its simplicity—like a quiet whisper of a story that lingers long after the credits roll.
The Most Important has had a pretty limited release history, which adds to its intrigue among collectors. It's often hard to find on physical media, and the few copies that pop up can command attention at auctions. Interest in lesser-known animations from this era is growing, and this title definitely sits at a unique junction in the landscape of early 70s animation, making it an interesting piece for collectors looking to expand their libraries.
