2D Class Week 15 Film 7 – The Secrete of Nimh

1. Who was the director of the film? What other movies has this director produced?
Don Bluth directed this film and he's known for other movies very similar in style: An American Tale, The Land Before Time, All Dogs Go To Heaven, Thumbelina, Anastasia and Titan A.E.

2. Artistically, what did you like about this film?
The animation style of Don Bluth films is something I've always liked, though it's a little hard to pinpoint why. The best way I can put it is that it's less polished than later Disney films. This means that a lot of the animator comes through in the animation and in the mistakes, kind of like early Disney films animated by Milt Kahl (although he never made mistakes, guy was an animation God). It's so much easier to see the artist in them, if that makes sense.

3. What was Mrs. Brisby's husbands name?
Jonathan. As we heard many times from everyone calling her Mrs. Jonathan Brisby. (Which is weird, to be referred to as your spouses full name.)
