Norman McLaren made Scherzo early after his arrival in North America in 1939, but the film was subsequently lost. In 1984 the original materials were found and the hand-drawn images and sound were reconstituted. Picture and sound dance triple-quick in this animated version of a musical scherzo. A film without words.
Good for a quick watch, having on in the background and talking about after.
Close in feeling, tone and story.
A different format. A familiar feeling.
