Take Two translates the day’s headlines for Southern California, making sense of the news and cultural events that affect our lives. Produced by Southern California Public Radio and broadcast from October 2012 – June 2021. Hosted by A Martinez.
Here at Take Two, we've been hearing from the nominees in the Best Animated Feature Film category.
This year, the category has a very international feel... Of the five nominated films, there's an entry from British filmmakers.
There are also films from Brazil and Japan.
Boy & the World, is the story of a boy in search for his father told in a very colorful and imaginative way.
When Marnie was There, based on a book, Marnie follows the story of a young girl sent to live with relatives in the countryside. She soon becomes enamored with a mansion and a girl who lives there.
Boy and the World and When Marnie was There made it to the U.S. thanks to a New York-based distributor of animated films called GKIDS.
For more on the company and its two nominated films, we're joined now by Dave Jesteadt, Senior Vice President of Distribution for GKIDS.
