Adam Elliott's charming but dark (both in color and theme) claymation masterpiece
Mary and Max will definitely make you laugh and maybe even make you cry-- though not as much as
this movie; it's the story of the oddest of friends, an awkward Australian girl and her accidental pen-pal: an obese New Yorker with Asperger's (voiced by Philip Seymour-Hoffman) and the film has a novelistic sense of time . . . you journey through love, death, betrayal, suicide, alcoholism, neglect, and obsession and though it's all made of clay, you forget that soon enough: five cans of condensed milk out of five.
