    the fact that, when he finds the skeleton, he cries, feeling bad for the poor soul who lost their life at sea. I find that so touching

      I guess as a way to repay his kindness, the woman was given another chance to live. One I’m assuming will be a much better life than the one she once lived.

    Really beautiful. Seeing inuit folklore as animation is so wonderful... Really well done. I really wish there was more of this kind of thing in the world. The animation on the skeleton in particular is really well done... giving her that jerky, creepy motion was great. It really did look like she was chasing him, even though she was just caught up in the lines. Really great atmosphere, with a cute ending.
    (And for those who may be wondering, I looked up the actual story, and the pair become lovers afterwards and she helps him catch fish so he's never hungry again apparently ;p)

    This cartoon is about how to get a true love. For the most true and eternal love you have to face "death" in your relationships. The man got scared of the teryfing skeleton, but somehow he found beauty in it. And skeleton took some light from his soul and turned into the woman.
    Legend actually ended up with them to be together till the and of the world. For him to face skeleton was the beginning of fulfilled life with the most wonderful woman.

    Dear Lord what a fake out. You had me at the edge of my set. The guy dragging the skeleton to his hut didn't scare me, the skeleton moving and drinking the guy's tear didn't scare me, THE FACT that the skeleton LITERALLY stuck her HANDS into his chest is what scared me. I thought she was going to SUCK the life from him!
    Then after it happened I was like, "Awe, he's not alone anymore."

      The legend says the skeleton woman used the man's heart as a drum and sang for each part of her body and once it was done, she put it back in place and fell asleep by her lover's side.

      Hannah Byrnes personally I don't think the father would fish in a lake where he threw the body of the daughter and I think it would have said "until he [the father] returned" instead of "a solitary fisherman" at 1:20....

    • @Liuhuayue
      @Liuhuayue 9 лет назад +11

      Alexis Mae Godina Yep, that's also what I was thinking; it was probably a stranger who was struggling so hard that he dared to fish in supposedly haunted waters.

      @no_i_dont_want_no_slugs 9 лет назад +2

      +Liuhuayue Yes, I certainly feel like this is a "kindness of strangers" sort of story. I think we'd be given more context/information if the father had a change of heart, was no longer cruel, and deeply regretted his horrible actions.
