“THE BEST OF THE TOURNEE OF ANIMATION”
For almost 30 years The Tournee of Animation gave American audiences a chance to see outstanding animation from around the world. In 1994 Expanded Entertainment, the final distributor of this important series, assembled a 35mm program of some of the very best films in their library. It includes 5 Oscar winners and prize winners from Annecy, Zagreb, etc. Tonight’s show is probably the first time this outstanding program has been seen by an audience since Expanded closed.
