To all thinking adults: Never has an animated feature, heck, any movie, so affected me as Crac. There is something about the way it depicts the passage of time, especially at first in a family's long-ago happy moments, that is just so moving it defies language. I've seen it only twice, and that may be enough. One shouldn't trifle with the depths of emotion and memories a simple rocking chair can represent.
Additional comments: The story begins with a birth, and ends in an "after life," of sorts. If you read and understood The Giving Tree, it's a close cousin. The animation is colorfully Impressionistic.
Its message will be lost on kids. It's message will remain forever with any adults that's ever felt love. And it's only a cartoon.
