What a delightful combination- a hauntingly sweet song paired with Dali inspired animation. I found the animation to be more old-style Disney, not like the cookie-cutter cartoons more recently produced. It was flowing and lyric, a perfect accompaniment to the music.

The Dali fan will find countless images from his paintings, brought to life and presented in a graceful, dreamlike world. Images meld one into another in a way that Dali was not able to utilize in still art. He might give the *impression* of transformation, but in Destino, you see it come to pass.

It is an airy cruise through melancholy, romance, and longing. For me it was most thought-provoking, but not heavy or depressing. Definitely recommended!
