Entertainment Reviews:

New York Times - 09/04/1992

"...Continually inventive and witty....The movie effuses a jaunty, surrealist magic..."

Chicago Sun-Times - 10/24/1992

"...A wacky, absurdist story with a warm soul....Plympton uses a sketchy style, giving his pictures a jumpy, jazzy look that perfectly fits his fluid world..."

Product Description:

As a frustrated songwriter struggles to pen the perfect musical number for an overbearing media mogul, he stumbles upon the magical fantasyland of Flooby-Nooby and becomes entranced by its eccentric, musically-inclined denizens--which include Elvis-impersonating canines and nasally-challenged cab drivers. Oscar-nominated animator Bill Plympton (YOUR FACE, MUTANT ALIENS) takes viewers on another surreal journey through his unique brand of contorted animation in this innovative feature-length film scored to Maureen McElheron's original blend of blues, country, and rock.
