[Dixielandjazz] OKOM flavored non-Disney animation coming soon!

[Kurt]

Here is the synopsis of the movie from their website.  There is probably
some retro 1930s style music in the show.


Adopted by his grandmother, Madame Souza, Champion is a lonely little boy.

Noticing that the lad is never happier than on a bicycle, Madame Souza puts
him through a rigorous training process. Years go by and Champion becomes
worthy of his name. Now he is ready to enter the world-famous cycling race,
the Tour de France.

However during this cycling contest two mysterious men in black kidnap
Champion.  Madame Souza and her faithful dog Bruno set out to rescue him.

Their quest takes them across the ocean to a giant megalopolis called
Belleville where they encounter the renowned "Triplets of Belleville," three
eccentric female music-hall stars from the '30s who decide to take Madame
Souza and Bruno under their wing.

Thanks to Bruno's brilliant sense of smell, the brave duo are soon on to
Champion's trail. But will they succeed in beating the devilish plans of the
evil French mafia?

Hi all,

I just saw a trailer for the new film  "The Triplets of Belleville" - I
don't quite know what it is all about but the soundtrack and style seem
very "OKOM" to me. Lots of Hot Club of France sort of stuff.

  The trailer can be seen at
http://www.apple.com/trailers/sony/thetripletsofbellville.html and
there is more info at
