1 | * AnimationAgeGhetto: In-universe, the director expects the animation to be funny and carefree, and gets increasingly angry with the artist for not complying. The movie as a whole seems to criticize this attitude. |
2 | * CultClassic: ''Bolero'' especially is a gem of its own of DerangedAnimation and detailed creatures before the age of CGI. |
3 | * EsotericHappyEnding: At the end of the movie, [[spoiler:the earth explodes and the words "HAPPY END" appear]]. |
4 | * HilariousInHindsight: |
5 | ** The film poster and the opening sequence of the ''Boléro'' segment seem taken straight out from ''VideoGame/WorldOfGoo''. |
6 | ** The final piece is "The Firebird Suite", which Disney would also use for the final piece of ''WesternAnimation/Fantasia2000''. |
7 | * JerkassWoobie: Surprisingly, the snake in ''Firebird''. Sure he tried to get Adam and Eve to eat the apple, but after [[spoiler: eating the apple himself and going through a hellish world of western commercialism]], who wouldn't want to comfort him? |
8 | * RetroactiveRecognition: The animator is played by Maurizio Nichetti, who became known as the Italian Creator/WoodyAllen. |
9 | * SignatureScene: The ''Boléro'' segment, particularly the shot of the soda bottle. The segment was frequently shown stand-alone, and was featured on many covers for the film. |
10 | * SoOkayItsAverage: Outside of ''Boléro'' and ''Valse Triste'', none of the other segments really stand out despite their stellar animation. Though this can be somewhat made up for with the live-action segment in-between the animated segment; which are often just as a kooky and surreal as the former. |
11 | * TearJerker: Watch the ''Valse Triste'' segment without tearing up. {{Lampshaded}} by everyone in the orchestra and chorus and onlookers bawling their eyes out. |
12 | * SugarWiki/VisualEffectsOfAwesome: ''Boléro'' is a masterpiece of DerangedAnimation. |
13 | * TheWoobie: |
14 | ** The cat from ''Valse Triste''. |
15 | ** The artist is also this for most of the movie. |
