I liked it when I first saw it, and am impressed with it the more that I think about it. Nemo* is tightly written, clever, funny, and plays to universal themes of fear, loss, and love. And the room keeps getting dusty near the final scenes.
Carry on.

My mother and I go to a spa each year and there is this guy Ed that tends to go the same week we go. At the spa you generally eat dinner with different people each night if you want, to meet people and be social. My mother was seated beside Ed one night and he asked her what she did and she said she is a semi-retired teacher. She asked Ed what he did and he said that he worked at an animation company. My mother said "oh", dismissing this boring statement out of hand and proceeded to regale Ed with tales of her second-graders. Which was probably what Ed wanted, being a low-key guy, but I found it quite amusing seeing as the "animation company" is Pixar and Ed is co-founder and president. I have never told my mother this fact.
This post has nothing to do with kids - I'm just bored. Happy Holidays!
