Not long enough to create real emotion (like the tragedy in Bambi), yet it similarly impacts an animation viewer’s expectations in delivering a memorable grown-up ending.

  Clever use of perspective and composition that invites thought while advancing the story.  A sublime finale literally and figuratively inverts perspective, so that the real world becomes the altered world, or has the altered world become the real world? 

  Near perfect construction and subtly profound.  Is the one tear shed, from joy, sadness, or simply flight?  Mystery, adventure and lifelong dream-fulfillment all in a brief 3 minutes and 10 seconds.
