Synopsis

“WATERSHIP DOWN certainly wasn’t the first animated film to think about character with such an attentive sense of nuance, nor was it the first to dismiss the preposterous notion that the form is inherently childish. Nevertheless, its role in transitioning animation from a medium meant primarily for kids to an adventurous, ambitious art form worthy of serious debate is impossible to ignore.” —Slant
