Slocum at Sea with Himself is a new animated film about the solo circumnavigator made by keen sailors Sandra and Paul Fierlinger.
From watching the ten beautifully made trailers (or ‘teasers’), I’d say it rises well above the charming, not least because of the details, which are both included and correct. The music’s nicely done too…
I think I’d rather like to see the whole thing, if I can figure out how to make Vimeo play via our Chromecast. Must ask a young person…
PS – We watched this two hour movie in a single sitting last night, and it was every bit as good as the trailers promised. The task of getting the Vevo film to play on out TV/hifi arrangement via Chromecast was a bit of a struggle, but once I’d installed several extensions to Chrome, it worked – and as I say it was great.
Direct descendant Ron Slocum is an old friend of mine from the Caribbean. We are both members of The Ocean Cruising Club.
Ron with wife Vicky live now in Southern California.
Delightful 🙂
It’s well worth stumping up the £10 to watch it, I’d say.
