- Someone asks what UY4 is all about...
-
- Gee, what a time warp. 1987 (I think) when the movie came out, and
- people were confused then. Five years later, I'm hearing the same
- thing.
-
- This IS the strangest UY movie that was made, it goes off in
- different directions, almost at whim. It does have the barest
- thread of commonality, Lum is in it.
-
- I'll have to look up a synopsis of the movie around here somewhere,
- but one thing for sure, even in English, it will make little sense.
- You'll definitely need liner notes to explain what is going on and
- why.
-
- The one thing that I have always liked is the haunting theme song,
- Melancholy no Kiseki (Merankori to you literal readers)
-
- By the way, I have a laserdisc that is a behind the scenes look at
- UY4, The Making of UY4 (what else). It shows how an animated movie
- is put together, shows the voice actors recording their parts
- (I can never get over how much different they look, as one would
- IMAGINE them to look), and they even point out the mistakes that
- were made in the movies (bloopers).
