A unicorn overhears from a hunter that this is the last forest where a unicorn roams. Distrought and worried, she sets out on a quest to find what has befallen the rest of her kind.
A simple plot, but the movie puts it to excellent use. My thoughts behind the cut.
A man, prodded into recommending a story (one guess) to Walt Disney gets a extended look behind the curtain of the studio while drifting away again and again from his tour-guide..
...And that's about it. Cute framing device, but Inception it sure wasn't.
More below the cut.
Finally actually read the whole book.
And... well, I think the movie's better. Much better, even.
