This movie makes for a magnificent metaphor of Dianetics, where your nature is largely shaped by your experiences in the womb -- or egg.
Okay, I'll stop being silly now.
It was a very decent movie with some surprisingly emotional scenes. When the seal appeared, I thought, Holy shit! This is going to scare kids to death! It had some very dark moments toward the end and probably should have ended dark. But of course that wouldn't sell.
I keep wondering what Gene Kelly, Sammy Davis Jr and other tappers would have thought of the movie if they'd had a chance to see it.
I found it strangely funny that the mother and the girlfriend -- the two sexually-appealing "ladies" -- had narrow waists.
Now I have this powerful urge to go to the South Pole and corset all the penguins.
