Oh What a Nico

About This Movie

Oh What a Nico is an interesting piece, a short animation that serves as a tribute to Nico Crama's 50 years in filmmaking. The tone has this quirky charm, a mix of whimsy and nostalgia, especially since it's a reworking of Oh What a Knight from 1982. You can feel the playful spirit, even with the knight tackling bizarre dangers to rescue a princess. It's not just the story, but the practical effects used here that give it a unique texture, blending old-school animation techniques with a fresh perspective. The pacing feels brisk, keeping you engaged, and there’s a certain warmth in its execution. It's an ode to creativity and the craft itself, a reminder of what animation can achieve.
