RE: Memoir of a Snail (film): Beautiful and touching with an interesting graphical style

Ok, watched a few. That kid is very disturbing looking to me :)

I wonder how long it takes to make those because even in the Snail movie they do a bit where Grace makes a stop-motion film inside of a stop-motion picture and they showcase how grueling it is to do just a tiny thing. Imagine how much time it takes to make a 90 minute film and how much of a gamble it is. Also, the writing has to be absolutely perfect because imagine a bad script with 3 years of painstakingly moving clay just a tiny bit over and over again only to have it all flop?
