Trailers are an art form in and of themselves. There is a fine balance to strike between giving your audience a sense of the movie without giving away all of the surprises. One of the best trailers I’ve seen in a while is for Micmacs a Tire-Larigot (French for "nonstop shenanigans"), a film by Jean-Pierre Jeunet of Amelie fame. The music is pitch perfect and I love the imagery, colors, even the dang font. After seeing this, I want to know more about these crazy characters and the story. Check it out here.
Jeunot is like watching a live-action cartoon--whimsical, inventive and charming as all get out.
