Reviews for "A lifestory"

A masterpiece.

I've loved Mr. Coo for years, and have long been impressed with the fluidity and clarity of the animation. It so eloquently delivered whimsey that was beyond language and could transverse culture. Mr. Coo has always been one of those rare gems I could share with anyone.

But this is a truly epic story, delivered in the vein of Joseph Campbell's hero.
What I pull from this presentation is the indication of an important and righteous goal. The lack of hesitation from our lovable hero suggests an acceptance of his destiny.
The rest of the symbolism comes clearly and exquisitely when I look at it in this light.
My favorite part was at the end when he took off his mask because he simply didn't need to be afraid anymore.

Thank you so much for this. What a beautiful gift you've made for us!

wow, thanks a lot man! About the interpretation, you got it right. The original text is called 'The hymn of the pearl', if you want to look into it. Cheers!

What can I say, it's just pure dead brilliant!

The artwork, music, and story are all so wonderful. This is definitely one of my all-time favorites and I am so glad I did not miss it. The music matches so beautifully with the story and just makes me happy every time I watch it.

This is definitely one of those rare works of art that show up on here every so often.

This was seriously beautiful, and the meaning of the story itself added even more to this animation. Great job, 5/5.

Amazing work, very abstract but very meaningful
