Falling in Love Again (3D)
20033 min 3 secFilm: Animation
Direction: Munro Ferguson
Production: David VerrallMarcy Page
This animated comedy unfolds to Marlene Dietrich's rendition of "Falling in Love Again." It is a playful take on popular myths and clichés about love and a send-up of the glorious vertigo of... falling in love.
When two cars travelling in opposite directions careen around sharp curves, screeching on two wheels, the "meeting" of their occupants promises to be explosive. The collision propels them into outer space--much to the surprise of a couple of Canada geese.
Just as Marlene Dietrich defined an era with the song "Falling in Love Again," filmmaker Munro Ferguson is helping to define a new art form halfway between drawing and sculpture. He uses a revolutionary device that allows him to animate 3D images with a wand in space.
