Rachel Wagner Rachel's Reviews (YouTube) It's a real beautiful beautiful sweet little movie. Rated: 8/10 Feb 12, 2019 Full Review Rachel Bowles The Skinny Louise...'s apparent slightness is made up for by its ability to haunt the viewer long after the credits roll. Rated: 4/5 Feb 20, 2017 Full Review Jay Horton Willamette Week Conveying wistful melancholia though indelible imagery drawn by the artist's hand (and then animated by computer), the measured pace and elegiac tone require and endlessly reward a willing patience. Rated: 3/4 Feb 9, 2017 Full Review Read all reviews

Audience Member Extraordinary, beautiful allegory, so deft and light-handed it may be easy to miss the true subject -- and several reviewers did. Which is hilarious, but sad for them. This is a magical film. I would recommend it to fans of any genre. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/18/23 Full Review Read all reviews
