Reminiscing The Red Balloon

Watched the classic 'The Red Balloon' with my son over the weekend. I was taken back to my days in elementary school where I first saw this old 50's flick from a loud rickety film projector. Do those things still exist? I was still amazed by the special effects, color, and overall cinematography of that time just as much i was when i was a kid. Although, it did feel a bit longer than i last remember it, maybe because this time around the stalking balloon got a little old, the meaning of the movie remained the same for me . That meaning is that LIFE is full of miracles if you believe.

Mini Me's attention was directly squared on the tube from beginning to end. Immediately after it was done he wanted to see the White Mare, the second of a double feature on the DVD. I had enough reminscing of films from my school days for one day, and directed him to i think the Cartoon Network instead.
