Well, now: that's the first time I've heard all of "The Big Rock Candy
Mountain" since I was about 6 or 7, and it sure was evocative! The
repetition of "At Play ... " kind of bothered to me, and although I'm not
criticizing it, I can't really understand why so much color was
converted to b/w, in part because color segments were included. All in
all, a worthwhile production, even if it's a bit quirky.
