  • Bobby lee bought me here

  • really enjoyed it , thanks for posting

  • The quality made it rly hard to read; had to shrink it, but I enjoyed it. Cute "couple".

  • Norstein books in English and Russian are available at Norstein Collection at Amazon

  • herons... cant live with em, cant live without em

  • Wow I was expecting a Japanese cartoon and randomly turns out to be Russian.

  • Very creative and beautiful!

  • alguien puede decirme la moraleja de este cuento? :)

  • Es precioso! Que detallista!

  • No one does animation quite like Yuri Norstein. He's one of the few artists in the animation field who actually deserves that complement.

  • What a lovely bit of animation. sweet.

  • that rooster kicked ass! :D

  • i wasnt paying attention at first and i thought this was real then that heron guy started hammering and i got sooo confused

  • Ahhhh... Pride.

  • As the ending says... 'one AFTER another' ... never quite in the same moment... always before, or after... ne'er the twain shall meet...

  • aw. so cute! :)

  • Man, they both love each other, but if only one of them wouldn't hold a grudge...

  • brilliant movie, classic story. :)

  • beautifull

  • hey the opening solo that was sung by a young woman, is that part of a russian folk song, or was it composed for this piece in particular? does anyone know?

    эй соло открытия, которое было спето молодой женщиной, - то, что часть российской народной песни, или это было составлено для этой части в особенности? любой знает?

  • It is not Russian folk. It is just a melody.

  • ХОРОШО

  • it's all so true =(

  • ke bello, un trabajo hermoso

  • Another cartoon with great music.

  • i am a heron. i ahev a long neck and i pick fish out of the water w/ my beak. if you dont repost this comment on 10 other pages i will fly into your kitchen tonight and make a mess of your pots and pans

  • we are also herons, in swedish "häger". we like you very much.

  • Beautiful

  • прям как у чехова. счастье близка, а не словить...

  • Нет, проще говоря:

    Счастье было рядом

    Да ёбнуло снарядом

  • I almost cried when I saw this again after so many years. This animation marked my childhood. Many thanks Sasha...

  • This is beautiful animation. I watch it again and again on my media player but just can't get enough. I like the translation though, it's great for my English speaking friends, thank you Sasha.

  • Gorgeous, I wrote a song about this in the early 80s, called Taking Turns. Lover, lovee, why do we

    keep taking turns.

  • You should encode the movie with higher quality, it's too hard for me to read the subtitles.

  • ke bello, un trabajo hermoso

  • very sweet indeed

  • So the language has to be English for a cartoon to be good?

  • true thing

  • @vanderlej A cartoon usually is at its best when it's in its native tongue, in my opinion. This video does get highly rated, but for me it would start getting a rating if it didn't had any speech at all. It would have made the story a little bit more enjoying. As one can fill in the blanks themselves rather than a written story being told, which is in my opinion a story half-baked. Many critics will possibly disagree though, but that is what is so nice about opinions are allowed to differ.
