Having lost my wife to cancer (I can't believe it'll be 10 years this September), when she was 34, and we were about to celebrate 4 years of marriage, and 12 years together, this review hit me hard... I'm half afraid to watch this movie but it looks too beautiful not to, just hoping it has right type of message. Oh, and having an older son and younger daughter makes more surreal. Both are just barely adults now and all I hope is that I made them feel loved, both of them.
I am so sorry to hear that man. It seems to me that you are an extremely strong man for going through that and making it out . I sincerely hope that you’re doing better, and that the rest of your years are prosperous. It must have taken a lot of will power to push through that. You are an impressive human being. I’m sure that your children know you love them, I can’t speak too much on this, as I don’t know you personally. However, from that short comment, you seem like such an amazing Dad :) you should be proud of yourself.
Proud to be Irish From my home nation of Ireland, I can be top-tier competitors to Disney Dreamworks and all other Animation Studios. Thank you, Cartoon Saloon, for making a beautiful story
I absolutely love that you used soundtrack from both the Spiritfarer and Child of Light. These two games, for me personally, are the most beautiful games I have ever played. To this day I remember how I beat the final boss in Child of Light, credits rolled, Off to sleep by Cœur de Pirate started playing and I bawled my eyes out. Also Spiritfarer... i dont know how, but to me, that game brought a whole new perspective on hugs and goodbyes. Everytime a spirit passed on, I cried happy tears. That was the most therapeutic game ever, imho. Im glad I played both games blind, not knowing what I was getting myself into and I wish I there was a way to replay them again for the very first time.
I remember watching this film when I was younger at a conference for those afflicted by medical conditions and rare diseases. It was small from what I remember, and I don’t remember all that much. But even years later, I still remember this movie. Something about it touched me when I was younger from its gorgeous animation to beautiful soundtrack, only now do I realize I loved it so much because of the story, even if I didn’t understand it all too much back then.
I watched this movie as a kid in the middle of summer. It was one of the most surreal, magical, and breathtaking experiences ever. It very much reminded me of ghibli with it’d magic and pacing, and I lived for it
NO WAY! Bro I'm a music teacher and I just taught a lesson analyzing the lyrics to the song Saoirse sings at the end of the move. The art style in this is probably one of the most gorgeous I've ever seen
Ok cool, why do people care so much about that show? I honestly don't get it and feel like it was just a bandwagoning fad. Like I get it represented lgbtq characters but it isn't that crazy. It's not a masterpiece or even that deep to be honest. It just became popular because of the time it came out.
@@sea_triscuit7980No its not a masterpiece but its a heartwarming show with sweet songs, love, character growth and lessons like how to deal with trauma or emotions so it connects to some people, but its not for everyone. Personally i love it because i watched it during a tough time in my younger life so it was important to me and then later i watched it in the beggining of my relationship where we bonded over the characters, the time spent laughing and crying and the relationships in the show so its one of my favorites. Its just enjoyable and some people like it and some people dont.
As someone with depression and struggling to explain how I feel, your explanation of depression is exactly that. It resonates with me heavily. The way you spoke nearly brought me to tears. Keep being who you are. Stay safe everyone.
If there’s one thing I always remember about these movies it’s the soundtrack. Song Of The Sea, has a kind of ethereal wonder to it of exploring the ocean depths, Secret Of The Kells, has a somewhat childhood charm of exploration, and Wolfwalkers has a serious undertone with an embracing a new way of life
I know this isnt about the movie but i just wanted to appreciate that u put the music and the clip at the start of spiritfarer in this video. Its such a good game about moving on and it rly fits this video.
have you heard of the game Gris? it's a gorgeous 2d platformer with similar themes of grief, and if spiritfarer was up your alley, i can't recommend Gris enough
Same here. I've been taking seizure medication that other people use as antidepressants since I was a kid, so I've been having trouble crying for years. As a person who has lost her mother and had a father who drank himself to death because of it, I had to force myself not to cry at the end of the movie.
thank you so much for covering this movie, and it means so much that you bring up grief as a major aspect. my ancestry is heavily irish, but as an american with a family who didn’t stay in touch with their roots, i’ve had to learn about our culture, even bits and pieces of our language, completely on my own, having never even been able to visit my own native country (and who knows when i’ll even be able to). it’s a sense of loss, loneliness, *grief*, that i feel isn’t spoken about as often as it should be. films like this are so important to me, because it’s a mirror for that grief. it might not be the same sense of deep loss that one feels from losing a loved one, but it still is something i have to mourn, and a large part of how much it hurts is the fact that i feel as though i have to mourn alone. thank you for talking about this and, whether it’s intentional or not, providing a space to have that grief feel seen 🩵
I just lost my grandmother a week ago, and in a bittersweet way it’s really my first time going through grief. I can already tell without having watched that this video is gonna make me cry
I think I’m becoming numb myself Things that use to bother me don’t anymore I don’t tell people what’s going on with me anymore or where I’m going I just want to be left alone honestly But I watched this movie and it really spoke to me a lot it’s hard for me to open up again like I use to I thought it came with age or stuff I’ve been through but I was told it’s more then that and this movie really help me understand a lot about what I’ve been dealing with for the past 2 years now
This movie is beautiful, heartbreaking, and just a stunning film all over! I love it dearly I feel like this studio is so painfully underrated! Love your content!
As an Irish person, this makes me so happy to see Cartoon Saloon getting the recognition they deserve! Fun fact: Baldur's Gate is also from an Irish studio ❤
The amount of beautiful art the artist had worked to make his movies its phenomenal and are all meant to be watched, they made the most artistic movies of our centuries
Thank you for giving this moving the love it deserves. I grew up with the dulaman song being from Galway, and I introduced my favorite movie to my us friends, who were in awe and surprised they've never heard of it
This movie is nothing less then a master piece and made me cry when I'm a person who doesn't cry over movies and it's a universally relatable story about grief that it made me go cry over my dead dog that's been dead for some years now so yeah its has gorgeous music and amazing art too
This was the first of the trilogy that I watched so it holds a very special place in my heart. This movie is so beautiful, the music is amazing, and I find the vibes to be very cozy. I’m glad you’re covering it!
I’m loving the use of the Spiritfarer soundtrack in the beginning as well as the clip! Such a beautiful game about death and acceptance! I recommend it to everyone! 💜
Damn this made me remember omori one of my favorite games in one part you speak with a tree and it tells you "To survive without living as the character closed himself"
He's the only one that can bring me to tears from just reviewing a movie or series. I've seen, maybe, Jon solo review this film but it was more interesting and fun
I absolutely adore this movie, it means so much to me. It came out the same year my great grandmother died and it really helped me through the grieving process. So glad to see you talk about this movie, you did an amazing job with it as always!
ive recently lost an uncle and my maternal grandmother. i wasn't close with them and that was my biggest regret...but i couldn't bring myself to be present when their time came. i still feel guilty but i also hopd anger over them both for leaving our family when we needed them.
i remember watching this movie when it first came out and back then i was pretty young at the time (idk like 12ish) and it destroyed me. it’s still one of my top 5 movies but i couldn’t watch for a while bc of how depressed it would make me
I recently lost a cat I had since she was a kitten. It still bugs me, but she did leave me with a kitten of her own so it feels like a part of her is still with me.
The first time I saw this movie was in a small theater with several friends and all of us were crying by the end of it. One of my favorite movies for sure.
While I really enjoy this video, I feel I have to say that the Selkie, as in Irish/Norse lore, is separate from the Good Folk, or what is referred to as "Fae/Fairies", in Irish folk tales. I only say this as the stories/lore of the Good Folk is disappearing in Ireland, more so as they get lumped in with European and british "Fairies"
Now I want to see all of these movies now. They're so emotionally beautiful, and how much they have brings so much connection to everyone. Song of The Sea will be my first movie to experience it.
Great intro pig, and gonna have to give this a watch lost my mom few years back and think would be helpful to give this a watch.Also had me teary eyed with the ending of the video fantastic.
I truly thank you for this vid and explanation on depression. After losing my mother at age 11. I describe it as a .. grey room with no doors, no windows, nothing inside of it, everything has the exact same tone of grey. There is nothing and this nothingness, slowly starts to consume you, consumes everything. Until nothing else matters, not even if youre alive or not.
The “child of light” instrumental background just hits differently. I appreciate all your videos dude. Do what you do how you like to do em!!! Quality just gets better and better that way
I adore this movie and the cartoon saloon studio on a whole, and I'm always happy to see discourse about both. Well done indeed! I also noticed a lot of parallels with the characters, almost in a wizard of oz kind of style-- the ferryman has the same design as the memory-haired man in the well. Both are grasping at memories of better days; trying, clumsily as they can, to maintain a semblance of positivity through nostalgia. Connor is Mac Lear, himself becoming an island after failing to control his own grief, leaving his mother (paralleled by Macha) to control him, for better or worse. Macha and the grandmother both manage their feelings with jars, the witch by locking her emotions in the glass, the human by abusing medication. Both Macha and the grandmother regulate the people around them because they don't see others regulating themselves to the "proper" standard. Every time i watch this movie, i get more and more out of it, and I've introduced all my friends to it.
You always choose to create videos on either the best most amazing underrated artistically moving life changing or the worst things you’ll ever lay your eyes upon and that’s exactly why I love this channel
I am commentating before really watching, but ill update how I feel afterwards! (Pls keep in mind that this is my personal opinion/experience!)) but, about 3 years ago now, my 17 year old sister passed away in a hit and run car accident. I was 21 at the time and unfortunately had moved out of state a year prior. I wont ever forget that phone call from my mother and the length of time it really took for that reality to set in. I flew home almost instantly, but everything to this very day just doesnt feel real. Its very much catergorized in the same place as my remembered dreams are, even though i know its the reality i cant escape. Many, many times, i have felt guilty for my imagined lack of emotion. I tell myself that i should feel more, that i should feel deeply distraught, like my mother. That I should be craving justice and avengance more than anything else in my life. But, for some reason, although i am obviously deeply devastated, i cant help but feel as though it was all destined to be. Of course i miss my sister to pieces and i would do anything to get her back, literally anything, but at the same time, I know theres nothing I can really do at this point, so why let it eat me alive? The real question is, once youve passed the acceptance stage of grief, and know that theyre gone, how do you get over the guilt of moving forward? The truth is the world doesnt stop turning, and everyone lives their lives as normal, and you almost feel spiteful for anyone thats happy. Grief was only a concept to me before my sister passed, and im almost ashamed at the way i treated people who were morning and missing loved ones before i gained sympathy. Sorry to unload, but, TLDR: Grief is an ongoing, complicated process that is different for everyone, and its unending from the moment it starts, even through the final stages of acceptance.
Okay, fully watched and i only have a few things to add; 1. I completely understand the "turning to stone= no emotions part, because if i was given the chance to have my mother forget about my sister, it *would* give me pause. Obviously I would never actually choose to have her forget my sister entirely, but I wont ever be able to accurately describe the way that she truly shut down. Im sure a part of it was being thrust into "empty nest syndrome" that much sooner, but in part, I wish I could take that pain away from my mother in any way possible. I feel kindof called out in this video, because in truth, i keep going, but the constant happiness is gone. I DO keep moving forward, but in part, it feels a little more empty without her. I stay positive, i have good days and good times, but itll always feel less than, knowing that she cant celebrate with me. I know its the same for my mother and my sisters, and that almost kills me more. I wish we could all be okay and back to normal, but grief is a lifelong journey for everyone. Just know, no matter the situation, there IS someone going through what you are and with all the millions of people out there, there IS someone out there feeling the way youre feeling. The human experience, no matter how horrific it may seem, is collective, Thanks for the therapy Pig
Since you liked Secret of the Kells, Wolf Walkers and Song of the Sea. You should check out Breadwinner, it"s another Cartoon Saloon Animated Film. It's about a girl name Parvana who lives under Taliban rule in Afghanistan in 2001. The movie made me tear up a bit
This film has been one of my favorites since it first came out. This year I decided to show it to my mom for St. Patrick's Day. She actually ended up getting a little mad at me by the end. But not because she didn't like it. She actually loved it. But she was mad at me because I told her it was just a cute Irish kids movie with pretty animation (because I didn't want to spoil anything). And during the final few scenes both of us were absolutely bawling our eyes out. So maybe learn from my mistake and warn someone before you show them this film lol. That said, it's a masterpiece, as are all of the other Cartoon Saloon films.
I am Irish and watched this movie when it first came out , I think I was from ages 4-6 because idk when it came out exactly. When I watched it at first I didn't like it because I didn't get the message. Like at all but dam,this movie is peak 🔥
Having lost my wife to cancer (I can't believe it'll be 10 years this September), when she was 34, and we were about to celebrate 4 years of marriage, and 12 years together, this review hit me hard... I'm half afraid to watch this movie but it looks too beautiful not to, just hoping it has right type of message. Oh, and having an older son and younger daughter makes more surreal. Both are just barely adults now and all I hope is that I made them feel loved, both of them.
I am so sorry to hear that man. It seems to me that you are an extremely strong man for going through that and making it out . I sincerely hope that you’re doing better, and that the rest of your years are prosperous. It must have taken a lot of will power to push through that. You are an impressive human being. I’m sure that your children know you love them, I can’t speak too much on this, as I don’t know you personally. However, from that short comment, you seem like such an amazing Dad :) you should be proud of yourself.
I hope the movie will help heal you in some way but yes it will hit you hard. You sound like an amazing dad. 🖤
Rest in peace to your wife, that can never be easy 🩷
I lost my mom to cancer and this movie has helped me heal. I wish I'd seen it growing up
Proud to be Irish From my home nation of Ireland, I can be top-tier competitors to Disney Dreamworks and all other Animation Studios. Thank you, Cartoon Saloon, for making a beautiful story
Proud to be of Irish decent.
irish from ireland????? WOAH WAIT. jk just a joke, i mean all respect
i wish America had legends and storys this good
I'm just... British English. 😔
@@d4rk-V01Dthere's laika
So glad you did a review of this movie, as an irish person it's so great to see this movie being talked about more
@n1ghtshad390if only the British didn't force them to only grow potatoes huh... huh? Huh.??
This movie is so underrated, and always makes me cry. Thank you for giving it some love.
I absolutely love that you used soundtrack from both the Spiritfarer and Child of Light. These two games, for me personally, are the most beautiful games I have ever played.

This movie is one of my favorites, and it was an introduction into an obsession with selkies.
NO WAY! Bro I'm a music teacher and I just taught a lesson analyzing the lyrics to the song Saoirse sings at the end of the move. The art style in this is probably one of the most gorgeous I've ever seen
The moms voice actor is blue diamond from steven universe
Ok cool, why do people care so much about that show? I honestly don't get it and feel like it was just a bandwagoning fad. Like I get it represented lgbtq characters but it isn't that crazy. It's not a masterpiece or even that deep to be honest. It just became popular because of the time it came out.
@@sea_triscuit7980 Bro are you delusional? he was just saying that the voice actor was that character from that show.
@@sea_triscuit7980 Lmao all they did was mention the VA being the same.
@@sea_triscuit7980No its not a masterpiece but its a heartwarming show with sweet songs, love, character growth and lessons like how to deal with trauma or emotions so it connects to some people, but its not for everyone.

Voice actor?why are you so coward writing actress instead actor????
This was my favorite movie. I'm glad it's getting some attention for once.

The spiritfarer music was a lovely touch
The amount of beautiful art the artist had worked to make his movies its phenomenal and are all meant to be watched, they made the most artistic movies of our centuries
I’d love to watch you make essay style videos not just about movies but about psychology and cool perspectives of the human experience 😺
Thank you for giving this moving the love it deserves. I grew up with the dulaman song being from Galway, and I introduced my favorite movie to my us friends, who were in awe and surprised they've never heard of it

One of the best games I’ve played recently. I shed so many tears each time a spirit moved on 😭
I love these videos. Thank you for doing them. I wish I had more time to watch all of them.
This movie is so pretty!! Thank you for reviewing it
Happy to see the spirit fairer shoutout, that game makes me cry but its so cute
Damn this made me remember omori one of my favorite games in one part you speak with a tree and it tells you
"To survive without living as the character closed himself"
He's the only one that can bring me to tears from just reviewing a movie or series. I've seen, maybe, Jon solo review this film but it was more interesting and fun
So happy you're doing this movie. Loved this since I was a kid
This is such a great movie! Glad to see you talking about it!
I absolutely adore this movie, it means so much to me. It came out the same year my great grandmother died and it really helped me through the grieving process. So glad to see you talk about this movie, you did an amazing job with it as always!
ive recently lost an uncle and my maternal grandmother. i wasn't close with them and that was my biggest regret...but i couldn't bring myself to be present when their time came. i still feel guilty but i also hopd anger over them both for leaving our family when we needed them.
As a girl from ireland who had to what this in primary school, im happy we did. Loved this film
I decided to watch this movie thanks to your analysis. Thank you. It helped heal something I don't know needed healing
i remember watching this movie when it first came out and back then i was pretty young at the time (idk like 12ish) and it destroyed me. it’s still one of my top 5 movies but i couldn’t watch for a while bc of how depressed it would make me
Man I've really been loving alot of the movies coming out of ireland in the last several years, not just animated either! Sláinte and grma!
I recently lost a cat I had since she was a kitten. It still bugs me, but she did leave me with a kitten of her own so it feels like a part of her is still with me.
Out of the three films, this one made me cry
The first time I saw this movie was in a small theater with several friends and all of us were crying by the end of it. One of my favorite movies for sure.
This was my favorite animated movie growing up. I watched it every time I got sick - almost like a tradition.
While I really enjoy this video, I feel I have to say that the Selkie, as in Irish/Norse lore, is separate from the Good Folk, or what is referred to as "Fae/Fairies", in Irish folk tales.
I only say this as the stories/lore of the Good Folk is disappearing in Ireland, more so as they get lumped in with European and british "Fairies"
you saying you just want to be wrapped up in a hair burrito... so relatable. just love you!
I’m so happy that this movie is getting more recognition
i love the spritifarer music in the background truly hits
This was a beautiful film, I’m so glad it was made and put into the universe. It really is art
Now I want to see all of these movies now. They're so emotionally beautiful, and how much they have brings so much connection to everyone. Song of The Sea will be my first movie to experience it.
Definitely a great movie! The ending makes me tear-up every time! ToT
I've seen this movie and I will say it's so worth watching it yourself. It's beautiful, creative, and just so eye catching.
I love how cute it looks, such a contrast to the story
I’ve watched it and I love the hell out of it so much.
THANK YOU i really loved this film thanks for reviewing it
Glad you watched it, recommended the movie on comments for like 5 times straight, really helps out if youre grieving.
Great intro pig, and gonna have to give this a watch lost my mom few years back and think would be helpful to give this a watch.Also had me teary eyed with the ending of the video fantastic.
I watched this a couple years ago and it wow it made me cry.
I did not need the emotional gutpunch of Spiritfarer playing in the first 2 seconds, man.
Oh man, this movie was wonderful. Also omg you showed Spiritfarer, that game made me bawl (i still haven't finished it yet)

I completely understand the "turning to stone= no emotions part, because if i was given the chance to have my mother forget about my sister, it *would* give me pause. Obviously I would never actually choose to have her forget my sister entirely, but I wont ever be able to accurately describe the way that she truly shut down. Im sure a part of it was being thrust into "empty nest syndrome" that much sooner, but in part, I wish I could take that pain away from my mother in any way possible. I feel kindof called out in this video, because in truth, i keep going, but the constant happiness is gone. I DO keep moving forward, but in part, it feels a little more empty without her. I stay positive, i have good days and good times, but itll always feel less than, knowing that she cant celebrate with me. I know its the same for my mother and my sisters, and that almost kills me more. I wish we could all be okay and back to normal, but grief is a lifelong journey for everyone. Just know, no matter the situation, there IS someone going through what you are and with all the millions of people out there, there IS someone out there feeling the way youre feeling. The human experience, no matter how horrific it may seem, is collective, Thanks for the therapy Pig
Grieving so much right now this couldn’t have come at a better time 💔
Genuinely beautiful video, Pig.
Not me starting this video while drinking and smoking because it's the only way I can feel anything most days
Since you liked Secret of the Kells, Wolf Walkers and Song of the Sea. You should check out Breadwinner, it"s another Cartoon Saloon Animated Film. It's about a girl name Parvana who lives under Taliban rule in Afghanistan in 2001. The movie made me tear up a bit
Can someone explain to me how Pig's hair looks better and better with each successive video???! Like wtf dude it's not fair!! 😊
AHHHHH YES IVE BEEN AWAITING THIS VIDEO THANK YOU SM!
ayOOOOOOO I was just looking for this movie yesterday
I'm so sad this video didnt get as much recognition as most. This movie is amazing
Damn..this movie. Great video😢❤
Omg i forgot abt this movie...it was so beautifull :,)
I remember having watched this movie with my cousins while sitting in the backyard of my grandma and loving it. (Hope you enjoyed it also)
OH MY GOD I THOUGHT THIS MOVIE WAS A DREAM thank you for reviewing this I just got a bunch of memories of this movie🙏
I love song of the sea, its beautiful in art and story.
The use of Child Of Light music is so fitting for this video
This film has been one of my favorites since it first came out. This year I decided to show it to my mom for St. Patrick's Day. She actually ended up getting a little mad at me by the end. But not because she didn't like it. She actually loved it. But she was mad at me because I told her it was just a cute Irish kids movie with pretty animation (because I didn't want to spoil anything). And during the final few scenes both of us were absolutely bawling our eyes out. So maybe learn from my mistake and warn someone before you show them this film lol. That said, it's a masterpiece, as are all of the other Cartoon Saloon films.
I love this review♡
Simple, to the point, full of story
Especially 11:15 , thanks for doing this
