First movie is a detective story, third is a military piece, etc. Yet it took me ages to describe what 2 felt like. Now I've got it. It's a fairytale. I even tweeted Don once, asking if he was inspired by Hansel and Gretel, and he said yes. The adult/parental figures are all unfit, and there are two abandoned children that must outwit evil. In an early draft of the script, Kyle apparently even has her "breadcrumbs" - her cigarettes.
So what say you? A fairytale right? Especially since this movie is so bright. Blues, yellows, reds.

I see what you mean. It's my personal favorite because it was the one I could mostly immerse myself when I saw it around the age of 7/8, which was around the same age as Andy in the film. The factory scene alone, it was like an entire different world.

Yeah man. From the score, to the colors, to the disbelieving, terrible adults, it all comes together nicely.

Especially the various settings, that's one thing I love about this movie, especially when I was a kid. Home, school, toy factory, great settings.

And that is what scared the crap out of me as a kid. It made it more "real" to me.

More realistic,not taking place in a huge Hollywood house or going around in some Van.
