This is perhaps the greatest animation event to ever bestow its head upon our weak mortal minds. What it says of American Society fills the gap between post-modernism and standard traditional story telling. Indeed, the mouse represents the ascent of the common man, the cats are the tyranny of injustices in American society. Tiger though, represents how that sometimes in such dire consequences, an injustice can some how turn in favor of the people, inciting, might one say, revolution? Indeed, An American Tail is a call to arms that we all must heed one day or another, whether we like it or not. Not since Ingmar Bergman's The Seventh Seal has this world seen such an avid display of avant garde film making. Bravo Fieval, bravo.
