thelema

An industrialist and his chauffer are murdered, one by mistake, one on purpose. No time to cry. Their fantomes become visible in a matter of seconds. That leads to a relationship in which the industrialist tries to maintain the class distinction, not very succesfully. We get to see the family relationships and the intricate net of sexual shenanigans. The young son of the tycoon is the only one who really mourns and gets involved in a chase with the murderer. Excellent special effects with fantomes that can go through things or are being gone through. Very beautiful sequence in wich the characters get into a video game with Egyptian decors. Light and funny.

Although it doesn't reach the level of a great movie everything in it is well done. The script is good and the voices and reading of great quality. The human figures are well animated but, for my taste, too close to reality. That destroys a little the spirit of fantasy and creates a feeling of ambiguity. Nice backgrounds and fantastic architecture. Of interest to any age because of it's overall visual pleasantness and narrative quality.
