Benjamin Renner

I'd seen a preview of this upcoming film (it's an anthology film, Le grand méchant renard et autres contes...), but didn't realize it was based on a comic until I ran into a copy of it in my local comic shop. Cute story, I loved the simple layouts and panels - it made me think about the variety of storytelling styles within comics. I thought there was an interesting underlying story about harassment and consent with regard to the fox and the chickens. The chickens are the only female characters in the story, and must take matters into their own hands since none of the other animals are willing to listen to their complaints about the fox (some of the other animals even enable his behavior). But, without giving too much away, the fox gets his comeuppance in the end so I'm satisfied in that regard. All in all a fun and lighthearted story, and I'm excited for the film!… (mais)
