The end of the year is close.Popular and happy festivities such as Halloween,Thanksgiving or Christmas are in our thoughts and we are glad to live them.Yet,not all that glitters is gold given that many people claim to be tired to celebrate the same old song year after year and they try to change them.So,The Nightmare Before Christmas shows us how Jack Skellington doesn't appear to be happy with the way of celebrating its feasts.
This amazing Tim Burtom's masterpiece is an American movie in 1993.It's fair to point out that The Nightmare Before Christmas is supposed to be a Halloween-Christmas film,but it is also considered a fantasy,musical and stop-motion animated movie.Besides,I must make clear that Nightmare is originated from a poem by Burton.Yet,its strong point,apart from its soundtrack was released by Marylin Manson,was its huge critical and financial success.Last but not least,it was nominated for Best Visual effects in the Academy Awards.In 1990,Burton deal with Walt Disney productions in order to develop this proyect.
To start off,in Halloween town.It is a world where Jack Skellington lives along with monsters and strangers beings.Jack is its leader,and the person who leads all the festivities.It is supposed that Jack should be completely happy in his town because his neighbors love him.However,Jack goes through a depression given that he doesn't like the way of handling famous celebrations.So,Jacks,by change,arrives to a wonderful world,which is called Christmas town,where all celebrations have a different and colourful atmosphere.When Jack comes back,he tries to carry out this way of doing in his town.Jack assigns some Christmas jobs to the Halloween town citizens in order to achieve an unforgettable festivity.Sadly,this effort will be really difficult to get to Jack.Although,when Jack meets Sally,a beautiful rag doll woman who are deeply and secretly in love with Jack,his feeling could be change.
I love The Nightmare Before Christmas because the plot is so gripping that absorbs you into a fascinating world of the annual Halloween and Christmas celebrations from the beginning to the end.Apart fom that,it is really well directed.For these reason,I would highly recommend this film to passionate about Tim Burton's world.
.....Just because I cannot see it,doesn't mean I can't believe it!
