Les escargots (1965)

René Laloux
Roland Topor

A gardener tries his best to make his salad plants grow. It is only when
he cries that his tears finally water the field and the salads grow huge.
The incredible size attracts a multitude of snails that quickly become
giant too, causing disasters and panic in the nearby city.

A lesson to be learned:

farmers should never cry, ball or wail,

for fear they may create the mega snail!

Panic Movement. Some surrealists abandoned surrealisms because they said it was limited by Breton. The founders of this movements are Roland Topor, Fernando Arrabal and Alejandro Jodorowsky. Great artists, they have made movies and wrote novels, the more polifacetic is Alejandro Jodorowsky who is a remarkable comic guionist and cult movies director. i highly recommend them...

but how did the snails even survive on the soil filled with the farmer's salty tears?!!

I love this weird, weird cartoon! I first saw it years ago on this "cartoon classics" video someone got my niece for Christmas. You never know when or where you'll find something awesome!
