Quite regularly there are animated movies released that are fun for children; slightly less regularly there are animated movies that adults can enjoy as much as children; and then, very rarely, there are animated movies made solely for adults. The utterly wonderful stop-motion Anomalisa falls into this last category.
Directed by Charlie Kaufman and Duke Johnson, with a screenplay by Kaufman, Anomalisa is the story of one man's trip to Cincinnati. The man, Michael Stone (voiced by David Thewlis), is in town for one night to speak at a customer service convention the next day. Michael has an interesting issue – everyone around him looks and sounds similar.
It is a funny prospect for the audience, and there is a lot of humor in the movie generated by it, but we can also feel Michael's fear as well. As an audience we know that the reason everyone looks and sounds similar is because they are all voiced by Tom Noonan and created by the filmmakers to look alike. Michael, however, has no idea what is going on. It is something that seems to have been his norm for a while now, but not something that he understands.
