A friend of mine suggested Watership Down and The Plague Dogs. The latter I’ll have to talk about another night, but I watched Watership Down, and I have to say that it’s an interesting story.
I’ll leave it up to Wikipedia to describe the story, but I have to say that it is interesting to see a story about animals that doesn’t attempt to assign large amount of anamorphic properties to the characters. In fact, it attempts to portray the animal group closer to their behavior patterns.
The reason I bring this up is because as a writer I find this level of writing to be interesting. Wolves High is about an anamorphic highschool, but after watching the animated movie it makes me wondering, if I were to ever finish it, if I shouldn’t research animal behavior more and reflect those attributes more.
Why? Because it shows that you don’t need to nearly transform an animal into a human in order to tell an interesting story.
