'E'

About This Movie

'E' is this quirky 1981 animated piece that really plays with perception and absurdity. The arrival of a giant letter 'E' in a park sets off a chain reaction of misunderstandings and surreal events, particularly for this poor guy who thinks he’s seeing a 'B'. The pacing is a bit erratic, with moments of heightened tension balanced by whimsical scenes that feel almost dreamlike. The animation style gives it a unique charm, with some practical effects that are surprisingly effective for the time. It’s more about the odd interactions and themes around identity and reality than any traditional narrative structure, which makes it stand out in the animation genre. Definitely a conversation starter among collectors.

Surreal animation style with distinct character designs. · Themes of misunderstanding and identity are central. · Notable for its eccentric use of letters as characters.
