"Extraordinary Tales" - Animated feature (Les Armateurs & Melusine Productions)

Edgar Allan Poe's literary works have inspired a new animated feature "Extraordinary Tales" directed by Raul Garcia.


Currently in production by Melusine and Les Armatures, the studio responsible for The Belleville Rendezvous,  the film will be made up of 5 adaptations of the writers stories including The Tell Tale Heart.  The few images released so far of the film show a brilliantly distinctive look and indicate that the film may be entirely or at least partly CG so perhaps this could be a mixed media production.


This looks to be a really interesting film, whether this will be released in mainstream cinema or to the Film Festival Circuit is not known yet but I shall definitely keep an eye out for it.
