"The Red Balloon" and it's many inspirations

In praise of  The Red Balloon, the award winning film,  Le Ballon Rouge by Albert Lamorisse.

And, this is also in praise for those who bring the beauty of primary colors
into our everyday world.

Below are a few clips each of which contain different scores inspired by this
classic children's film, which I find interesting.

But, here's a link to the original classic film,  The Red Balloon, as it was first released
which obviously is equally as beautiful.





(Grainy, but perhaps my favorite selection)


And, finally there's this version:
City Breathing: The Red Balloon. (Brooklyn Indie Band)



If you have never seen this The Red Balloon, then you must. 


It's perhaps the perfect film about love and loss,
and having faith in a better tomorrow.
