A must-see for Scots

"The Ballad of Nessie" is a 5-minute cartoon from 4 years ago written and directed by Emmy winner Stevie Wermers. It tells us the story of Nessie and how her tears created Loch Ness. I think this was a pretty good watch. There is decent drama in here, nice heart and emotion and also some funny moments, everything an animated film needs and it's usually not so easy to include it all in such a short piece. The narrator is Billi Connolly, fittingly one Scotland's most famous. I believe that this is a must-see if you are from Scotland, almost a national treasure, but it also makes a good watch for everybody else, especially if you love animation. Walt Disney Animation Studios sure showed us they still got it with this one. Highly recommended and if they ever decide to make a full feature based on this very short movie, I'd watch it in a heartbeat. thumbs up.
