Well you can watch it in bits, I quite enjoyed most of them and I think I will give it another watch one of these days - if I don't melt before |

Did you ever watch this? I am watching it now. So far the second story is my favourite because it was funny and there was this cool atop-motion effect. Also, I like when a film imitates a silent/ b&w picture but plays with the sound and colour as a result. I really liked the third one, but the child's eyes got to me. It's interesting to see Ao many references to stomach problems, as they are also a major concern in I Am A Cat. This is probably the most obvious detail, but I suppose the author must have been plagued by them and so writes about them often. Or it could just be a common problem and many people can sympathize with it. Do you know whether ALL of the dreams/stories protagonists are supposed to be Natsume Soseki?  |

Nope. I was wrong - the 6th dream is my favourite! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8_F0i4jkshU&feature=youtube_gdata_player (Sorry - I am on my iPod and can't give the appropriate code! :( ) |

I didn't even know what I was getting myself into when I clicked on that link Starshine. :) It was hilariously twisted.      |
