This is a beautiful little tale, charmingly presented, that will, I think remind the adult viewer of his or her favorite bedtime storybook. You can almost hear the sheets crinkle as Hugo Weaving sits down to send someone, though certainly not the viewer, to sleep (in the nicest way possible) with this endearing and very brief parable on sacrifice and duty. If Dr Seuss had taken a night train and shared a compartment with Oscar Wilde, they might have had this dream together.
