Review of Trapito

Trapito (1975)
10/10
The best latin-american animated movie ever
10 May 1999
When i was a child, 'Trapito' was the only movie that makes me cry, but the tears came for happiness. If you don't believe that 'Trapito' is the best Latin-American animated movie ever, please watch it, and you'll find an almost perfect movie with a very original story, an amazing soundtrack with songs that make you 'feel' the movie, great characters, lots of laughs and a lesson about life: everyone must have an illusion to be happy, because a man without an illusion is like a scarecrow.

'Trapito' is a little scarecrow, and he stay nailed to the ground having a very sad life, until he makes a new friend called 'Salapin' (a sparrow). Since then, 'Salapin' becomes the illusion of 'Trapito' and together they'll have a lot of adventures, from find a job for a farmer in trouble ('Largirucho', a very known character in Argentina) to find a pirate treasure in an underwater world, making friends all the way. But 'Trapito' must care, because an illusion have wings like a bird and it may go away, but there is a hope: the same wings may return it to him, along with all the happiness he ever knows. This a great movie, and at the end you will learn that the happiness can find a way to you, always.
