Mr Shelton (and surely others) reminded me of this most marvelous of films some time ago, and it’s long past time when I should dust it off for a watching again. If you have not had the pleasure of watching The City of Lost Children (or La Cité des Enfants Perdus, in the original French), you have been missing out on a dark, peculiar and very clever mix of Steampunk, fantasy, mad scientists, clones, gentle giants and wise children all struggling to survive in a nameless, watery dock city of iron and rust. It’s marvelous, and only Delicatessen (by the same Director) trumps it for my favour.

If you haven’t yet seen it, I highly recommend it – it is a work of art.
