The Little Prince

By Ana Velasquez, December 7th 2024

One of the most uniquely animated movies with one of the deepest meanings. Making you feel like you are traveling to different worlds and expanding your imagination. The Little Prince is a deep diving movie with the best representation and artistic visuals making sure that you appreciate how beautiful the film is.

I remember the first time I watched The Little Prince. I was around 10 years old, and it was playing on a little tv in a quiet Mexican restaurant with only my family and a couple in a booth. My dad and I started watching the movie not being able to take our eyes off the screen and immediately searching up the movie as soon as we got in the car, so we’d be able to finish watching it at home. As soon as we got home, we decided to watch it for a little movie night. Everything in the movie was so amazingly done with such good different types of animation, dreamy music, and such loving characters. Quickly becoming my favorite movie.

The movie introduces us to a little girl that moves into a new neighborhood to get into her “dream” school. After an accident she meets an aviator that is seen as the crazy man of the neighborhood. The aviator introduces her to the story of the little prince, and they get to bond.

The characters in the movie are some of the most loving characters I’ve ever seen in any movie. I personally thing you can’t hate any of the characters. The metaphors used for each different character and giving them all their own personal story making them unforgettable and helping the little prince throughout his journey.

Behind its amazing animation styles, the message of the story is certainly a reminder everyone can use. Reminding adults and children to live their best childhood and never letting your imagination get away from you and its okay to have fun. Reminding you that being different is so much better then being like everyone else.
