Neighbours

Neighbours (French title: Voisins) is a 1952 short film by Scottish-Canadian filmmaker Norman McLaren.



Warning- Definitely watch this together WITH your children. If you have not seen it before watch it first by yourself. I believe this film is a powerful tool if used correctly and it won an Oscar.

I saw this short film when I was in Grade 5. It left a huge impression on me. I do not recall the very graphic ending (which I recommend is for adults and older adolescents and definitely not for very young children).

As of yesterday, over 1000 people have visited my blog since Aug 29/2010 and so since I have a little voice I would like to use that little voice and encourage my 1000 + readers to "Love Thy Neighbour!"
