Too much of everything

what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.

The joyful confection is coated in a sparkly gloss, bright enough to gleam from the darkest, most cynical corners.

This movie was surprisingly good, It has great animation, and it tells an interesting, engaging story about the creators of curious George. If you want to learn about the surprisingly interesting story about the creators of your favorite childhood book and the hardships they had to face along the way, give this movie a try. I Recommend to everyone of all ages!

By using an overlay of animation, old films and photographs, the producer brings to life the story of the Reys, as people in their lives narrate in interviews, the events surrounding their extraordinary journey to create Curious George. You will read the same Curious George books with renewed appreciation, with deeper understanding of how the Reys personalities and interaction with each other influenced the adventures of George. The themes surrounding love, friendship, ingenuity, determination and a great amount of childlike curious and optimism touched our whole family at many points of the movie. I enjoyed this movie tremendously and would highly recommend it.

We all are fans of Curious George. This documentary tells us how he came about. It's an important documentary and fun to watch because it combines archival footage with current animation, in tribute to Hans Rey. All of us who grew up with Curious George and read it as well to our children and grandchildren, are given the opportunity to get to know Margaret and H.A. Reys; their personal history, happy and traumatic. We get the privilege to know them as people. This documentary made me love the character of Curious George even more, knowing how he came to be. I also learned about the bravery and perseverance of the Reys.

This is a well-made documentary about the couple Hans and Margaret Rey, the creators of the famous children's books about the adventures of the little monkey Curious George. It shows, in a quite original way, how this book character was brought to life by its makers and how it actually saved their lives. Being from Jewish descent, Hans and Margaret fled Europe just in time to escape the persecutions by the Nazi's, but bringing with them as their gift to the free world, the first manuscript about the adventures of a small curious monkey. Stories that have settled in the minds of millions of children and their children's children. Definitely recommended.
