I was a little worried about this one; it seems like a movie tailor-made for me, but also one that could easily fall into emotional manipulation without purpose. I didn't find that to be the case. This is an excellent look at a child's perspective on grief and personal tragedy, sprinkled with some lovely watercolor-esque animation. Lewis MacDougall is tremendous in a difficult lead role, and Sigourney Weaver and Felicity Jones are great as well.
