I'm not sure what drug one would have to be on to enjoy this film... but it's complete poo if you're sober. I admit that I liked the music and the main character's dress (a lot), but otherwise it was a waste of a beautiful Miami Sunday afternoon.

The images were dark and the characters interchangeable. The story was unclear and uninteresting. I feel sorry for the film school guy who introduced it who probably had to watch it several times and try to make it sound interesting. I was crossing my fingers throughout the film, hoping that it wouldn't be a full two hours... but it was. Two hours of watching people look at themselves in the mirror and dance slowly in circles. Two hours of confusing and pointless off screen dialog (I never saw a lip move on screen). Two hours of strange noises and dark images. TWO WHOLE HOURS of absolutely nothing.

This movie just popped into my head for no reason today and I looked it up. I was shocked to see that it doesn't even have five votes yet. I was lucky enough to catch this on TV one day. I was in Haiti visiting family who ironically enough had cable (Disney channel to be exact), which I did not. I spent most of that summer watching TV :)But I digress. This was such the awesome movie! It's about a Duckling who gets mocked for being very effeminate. They like to call him special and he likes to remind them that he's "UNIQUE!" Some how, through a strange twist of winter events, he ends up saving the day. Yay! It's a cute story but what's more important is that it sends a message of tolerance and promotes self-esteem for kids growing up who may not fit in.

I think Disney should air this film again. I wonder where I could find it.

Oh well, if anybody reads this who hasn't seen it yet see it!!! (if you can. I'm going to try to find it and post it. You guys do the same).

Happy Tuesday!!!
