MY DARLING DAFFODIL

Well, I have to say that I am unabashedly in love with these creative artists. Their first film they submitted to KIDS FIRST!, "Robots Don't Tell Jokes," is one of my all time faves. But this one I entirely different and charming in its own unique way. I guess you would categorize it as a music video, since music is the driving force here. But the visuals are super fun and the message - about love and patience, are evergreen and so sorely needed today.

The storyline is told in a duet between a Dandelion and a Daffodil, who sing praises of each other and about the persistence of awaiting for the joy of the coming spring.

Aside from the lovely lyrics and song, the concept of using a VW Beetle and a BW Camper Van as means of transporting these two is just brilliant. The 2D animation is perfect for presenting this story and song. And the layers of images - flowers, cars, locations - are spot on. The cutaways to photos of actual daffodils and dandelions in bloom is a terrific addition. The bees, the drive-in theater, all make lovely additions. You've got to love the outtakes with the dog joining in on the recording session. Truly a joy to watch and any child, especially little ones, will love this.

The film's message is above love and patience, and patience and love.

I give My Darling Daffodil 5 out of 5 stars and recommend it for ages 2 to 12, plus adults. By Julie S, KIDS FIRST!

A charming duet between a Dandelion and a Daffodil, all about love and admiration, that pays homage to the unsung patience and persistence of flowers in nature and anticipation of the coming joy that springtime can bring.
