the secret of kells be a film i have be wait for for year after see some early footage at the cartoon saloon in kilkenny . i be here to tell you now it be worth the wait . the cartoon be heavily stylise but not annoyingly so a i would fear . the whole film be a thing of beauty and great imagination and i particularly love the animated illuminated book where the little figure come to life on the page . the characterisation be superb and i love brendan gleeson voice a the stern abbot and i especially like the voice of the sprite aisling . the forest be a triumph and such a beautiful place . the story be well realise and a mix of fact and fantasy . and really draw the viewer in to cheer on brendan in his quest for the perfect material for the book . i be a lover of calligraphy and illumination anyway so the subject be close to my heart and but all the people i know who have see this and be not fan of the craft agree that it a lovely little film . i will definitely buy the dvd when it release and and would like to say and well do cartoon saloon and all the people involve in this mammoth project . may there be many more . positive . come back in here to say that i buy several copy of the dvd as soon a i could and give them out at christmas and everyone love it . and i wish them all the luck in the world at the oscar and such a joy to see this nominate .
