The Triplets of Belleville

DVD - 2004

A bicyclist is kidnapped from the Tour de France by mysterious gangsters; his grandmother travels to the city of Belleville (which has a sardonic version of the Statue of Liberty in its harbor), where she tracks him down with the help of a musical trio gone to seed, the Belleville Triplets.

Review by Library Journal Review

Raised by his bespectacled grandmother, a lonely young lad becomes so taken with his bicycle that his perceptive granny grooms him for the Tour de France. Mysterious kidnappers thwart his attempt, though, spiriting him off to a teeming metropolis, with grandma and her dog in hot pursuit. French-born director Sylvain Chomet has created one of the most visually inventive and delightfully strange animated films of all time. For all collections. (c) Copyright 2010.
