Can anyone recommend any Soviet cartoons?
Been on a nostalgic cartoon kick lately re-watching some of the old both Chinese and Western ones I enjoyed. But I never watched any Soviet cartoons having not grown up in the USSR, but I want to! Can anyone make any recommendations? Especially if it has animal characters because that's kind of my jam.
You're viewing a single thread.
I remember someone from a post-soviet country showing me Hedgehog in the Fog and being like "That's what a Soviet childhood looked like! We only had depressive entertainment! Traumatic!" (they were born many years after the USSR collapsed lol) I personally think it's interesting, albeit dark in some places, though the artistic medium is definitely worth a shot, as it had many interesting effects such as the segment with the tree.
i gotta ask, is it dark dark or simply doesn't have exploding colors to trigger all them dopamines in our brain and steal our attention?
Ah ha, well both really. It has a dark atmosphere visually and the storyline is about getting lost, some existential questions iirc, etc.
One of the many things Americans must learn about the world is that not all cartoons are cheap entertainment for kids
interesting, imma checkout later, two animations that is somewhat darkish that i liked is over the garden wall and infinity train
Thank you, sounds interesting!
Thank you!
And speaking of recommendations, I heard the Soviet Treasure Island cartoon from 1988 is pretty good. Didn't watch it myself yet.
Thank you so much!
Here it is full and subtitled. Step aside Kubrick, this is what true kino looks like.
