After watching Sita Sings the Blues, a wonderous, funny and at times beautiful film, I really hope someone in Hollywood gives director/animator Nina Paley a decent sized budget to make a film. Sita, an adaptation of the Ramayana, was a burst of energy, with its varied animated techniques including rotoscope, handrawn, shadow puppets, and 2D computer animation. While it doesn't all work, the film retains a sense of magic that is lacking in many of today's overabundant animated films.
