Fantastic Mr. Fox

Finally got to see 'Fantastic Mr Fox' last night. I knew I would but I absolutely loved it, utterly delightful and I can't wait to see it again with Ruby. It's as good as anything Wes Anderson's done before, the soundtrack is typically brilliant of his films and the cast of voices (George Clooney, Meryl Streep, Jason Swatzman, Owen Wilson, Bill Murray, Michael Gambon) are perfect. I especially enjoyed the recurring use of the sound effects from 'Man in the White Suit', the bandit masks, the use of the word 'cuss' in place of expletives and the way the characters eyes welled up at emotional moments.
