Over the past couple of days, I've seen When the Wind Blows, Watership Down, The Plague Dogs and The King of Pigs, which has been a hoot… or maybe not!
I now know why they are all considered amongst the most downbeat animated films ever made. I had only seen Watership Down before – over 20 years ago – and, like then, cried at the end. Both When the Wind Blows and The Plague Dogs left me an emotional wreck.
