Over at @LWLies, I FINALLY got the chance to write about the non-binary subtext in @tommmoore and @CartoonSaloon's Wolfwalkers, one of the major reasons why that movie has resonated with me since first watch. https://t.co/IokgQFtFdz

[Michael Leader @MichaelJLeader]

There's a doc on All 4 at the moment about The Snowman ('the film that changed Christmas'). A rare bit of telly celebrating animation and illustration - hidden in an hourlong hyperbolic nostalgia-fest, fussily edited and featuring way too much Tom Fletcher https://t.co/zgspcfMylY
