Grand Theft Auto: Beirut, Meets A Scanner Darkly

Under discussion:

A Scanner Darkly  (2006)


Waltz With Bashir, the first official trailer from cinemascopian.com on Vimeo.

Jeff Wells points to Cinemascopian, where blogger Yair Rave has posted the Vimeo trailer for Cannes competition entry Waltz With Bashir. This film wasn’t on my tentative must-see schedule (which I’ll be posting here before I get on a plane tomorrow), but I might find a place there, thanks to my Sita Sings the Blues-rekindled love of grown-up animation. Cinemascopian calls it an “animated quasi-documentary”; style-wise it looks a lot like A Scanner Darkly meets Persepolis, with an element of, like, Grand Theft Auto: Beirut. An aside: does any location for the next GTA seem *more* logical than the Holy Land?
