I caught this on HBO one night, and I must say, it is conceptually one of the stranger things I have seen. Animated tale concerns an effeminate duck who holds his own despite the taunts and jeers of his peers and the disapproval of his parents. All in all, this picture is fairly well executed, with enough good intention and notable talent to back it up...but the songs are twee, and the story is not likely going to interest most kids(it's hard to figure out exactly what audience was being targeted here...). four out of ten stars, I will have forgotten that I ever saw this by the end of this week.
