I normally don't post videos this long, but I love it!

OMG...one of my old favorites. This is from the National Film Board of Canada, an incredible resource. On YouTube, look up my all-time favorite from them called "Black Fly". It's a hilarious old classic, and has been a family favorite (I have inlaws and nieces way up in Ontario) for over 20 years.

Another NFB film too long for here, but one you might enjoy, esp if you have kids, is called "Paddle To The Sea". It's from the 60s and is awesome.

And the Muppets did the best version of "The Cat Came Back" and it's on YouTube. One of my favorite Muppets skits. Check out the face on the cat in that one.

I also saw a NFBC animated film years ago about a man planting trees -- it was done in pencil or charcoal, I believe -- haven't been able to find it, but I'll never forget it!
