Les Trois Brigands DVD

Les Trois Brigands DVD - 2007 French animated film, based on the book by Tomi Ungerer. Three robbers loot from people in the countryside until they are charmed by a darling girl from an orphanage.The animation is as classical as the story line, and though the narrative elements are quite well-known (the little orphan girl who gets "kidnapped"; the three robbers, scary on the outside but in fact warmhearted, the cruel, suppressive lady as head of the orphanage, etc.), they are put together in a truly genuine way to create a tale which is enchanting for children and adults alike. Rated G in Canada, 75 minutes. No subtitles.
