"The Iron Giant" 1999 (Replica Robot) @ Pittsburgh's Science Center
Welcome to Coolsville! (Population: Us.)
A classic 'buddy picture' tells the story of a friendship' between a crash-landed alien robot with amnesia and the small boy who befriends him, set against the backdrop of the 1960's Cold War and Space Race (and all that implies). While the film itself was animated in 'old style' of hand-drawn cells, the Iron Giant character was created with computer animation - a first for a lead character in an animated film.
