Coraline
In an age of advanced computer imagery, it’s a rare treat to get an opportunity to see a traditional stop motion film. Known for being a rather difficult and time consuming process, stop motion produces a unique and almost otherworldly charm. Coraline had been in the works for a long while and I’d been definitely looking forward to it, so I’m glad to report to you that it didn’t disappoint.
Directed and written for the screen by stop motion expert Henry Selick, Coraline (Based off of the novel by Neil Gaiman) is essentially the perfect vehicle to showcase this seldom used art form. With a simple yet dark story, not unlike something the Grimm Brother’s might concoct, Coraline sparkles with vibrant settings and impressive imagery. Overflowing with imagination, we get a taste of everything from circus trained mice jumping in unison, to creepy ghost children, to a vivid garden containing some quite unusual inhabitants. Naturally there’s that nightmarish quality that often accompanies both Gaiman and Selick’s work and the overall product is a stunning and spooky fairy tale.
Coraline has of course been strongly advertised as an impressive 3D experience, but in the way of 3D films there isn’t much to brag about here. Images slightly pop out every now and then, but frankly there was hardly anything I saw that granted this movie be made in 3D. When I see a 3D movie I want to see a intricate utilization of depth in relation to the foreground and background, but they really missed an opportunity. With that said, I wouldn’t worry about seeing in this in 3D if your contemplating it, Coraline would still be a strong visual experience without 3D.
Henry Selick has only made four theatrical films, often because of his use of stop motion, but I hope this film will lead to and continue to inspire future filmmakers to continue using this technique. Wes Anderson’s next film is supposed to be a stop motion adaptation of Roald Dahl’s Fantastic Mr. Fox so it’s good to know there’s always something in the works.
