'the cosmic eye'

Recommended Posts

a psychedelic animated movie by faith hubley,with music by dizzy gillespie amongst others.

sbs has shown this on public holidays in the past,i assume as a childrens movie though i think it requires to much concentration for them.

three alien musicians observe earth from space and then journey to earth looking for/at life here.creation myths from around the world and examinations of other aspects of life.

a sort of jaunty[?] jazz soundtrack that works well.

my taped copy is not perfect definition due to sbs reception quality but i can copy it.

sounds cool.

im a big fan of dizzy, bird and the other jazz professors.

i love sbs. i think i would be more close minded if i didnt have sbs access. so many good movies.

i loved "santa goes to mars" or whatever it was called. so dodgy but an absolute blast to watch.

Has anyone seen this movie where humans are on this planet and are really tiny while there are these really large alien creatures. They are very odd and in the movie one girl keeps a human as a pet and tries to teach it stuff with this device she uses from learning. Something happens and they end up trying to eradicate the humans, but some escape and i think end up killing one of the alien creatures.

It was a french cartoon on sbs and has been on quite a bit.

fantastic planet...very interesting film..a french / czech production.

i only caught it on sbs once..

i downloaded it a few months later..but it was unwatchable

it had french language, with english language over dub (ie, you could hear both at once) and it also had english subtitles which were different to the english dialog..very confusing! apprently the dvd is like this

If you want i might be able to get you a copy of the sbs version on VHS if you are interested?
