Audience Member The very passionate & insightful Documentary on the creation of Tin Tin & the influences he had to create the books he did. Herge did a lot in his time on the earth weather it was Belgium or abroad & its really reflected in his comics. It's extraordinary how much of his own experiences & feelings he put into Tin Tin. If you can track down an English speaking copy of this Documentary grab it since the narrator speaks French...Fast! Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/31/23 Full Review Audience Member Glimrende dokumentar og portraet om Tintins skaber Herge. Man faar et andet syn paa Tintin efter denne film.
