The Tale of Despereaux

I didn't have a chance to catch this in the theater back then when it was available. And it was only available for a relatively short period of time in the cinema before it was taken off. An animated film with a main character being called 'Despereaux'.. Weird name, hard to pronounce and hard to remember, and most of all, doesn't tell anything about the main character. Oh, but that isn't the main thing I want to say.

I wanted to say I liked this movie and you should give it a try as well. Hmm.. where should I start. How about if I start by telling about how the film characterized this little mouse 'Despereaux'. Ok, in the movie, it have characterized three things: one, the rat culture; second, the mouse culture; and third, the importance of soup culture. Very interesting that the productions are merely a short ninty minutes to draw these pictures out nicely.

For example, mouse culture is being pictured to have to recognise what to like and what to fear. Like slices of cheese and more greedy on bigger portions of cheese, but when spotted knives, mouse traps, or men, they were taught to fear. But this very mouse, turns out to be very different from the others. Despereaux doesn't fear or scared of mouse traps, knives, or man. And even in the inside, he believes that he is a gentlemen and doesn't likes to eat books, but instead, read them. Interesting?

These people, what about them and soup culture? They are so much fun! Well, I love soups, all kinds of them.. And for their little town, they even have soup day I think. Townsmen dressed in mushroom hats and onions and more.. But one thing ironically placed, mouse speaking codes of gentlemen and honour. What about that you may think? If you want to know the answer, try watching it. Just click the below link:
