Featured review
the animation techenology is very high.
This animation film is produced by Pixar studios. An elder man plays chess. However there is no opponent. He plays chess by himself and he changes his character. One is very quiet and cowardly, another is confident in himself and plays chess provocatively. At the beginning, he seems to be lonely because there is no one around him, in this place he is alone. On the other hand, he really enjoys playing chess so gradually loneliness will disappear. There is no dialogue but it isn't needed. Without lines we can enjoy this movie. This is an animation but it shows many expressions like really human. In the course of watching, I misunderstand there are two elder man. Through this animation film, I rediscover that the animation technology of Pixar is very high. The animation technology is shown up not only in the elder man's expression but also in the background landscape. The landscape is so beautiful and it looks like a picture. I think everyone should watch this film once.
