If I call it better than usual and give it a **/*****, you can probably already guess what my perception of the Brothers Quay is like. I don't hold them in high esteem. And also for this 13.5-minute film here, I cannot say I enjoyed it. Animation and story were negative factors as always with them, but narrator Witold Scheybal did a formidable job that at least got me slightly interested in the film. By 1993, the Quay twins were already really long in the business and very experienced and it is sad to see they still have not stepped thing up as this was a very forgettable watch. They usually do a decent job in selecting the soundtrack for their works, but of course it is not enough to make this one at least a mediocre watch. Stay away. Thimbs down.
