Movie #1508 ........................."Revolting Rhymes" animated shorts

Movie #1508 "Revolting Rhymes" is another animated short up for the 2018 Oscar and lost to "Dear Basketball," and it's so much richer of a film experience.  First of all, story's writer is Roald  Dahl , and Part I (the one I saw) is  funny (in a reserved British way) and wicked (dark).  It's very witty, has twists and turns (esp. at the end), but not something I wanted to see a Part II of.  (Part I was up for the oscar) It looks like it will continue (streaming  on netflix) if it finds a big enough audience, so you might want to check it out --- You might enjoy it and the animation.  I give it 3.8 out of 5 stars.
