50th-Anniversary Screening
 
An enterprising producer believes he has hit upon a winning concept: a program of original animated shorts set to classical music. Undeterred by warnings that this has already been done by an American named “Prisney,” he assembles an all-female orchestra, a bullish conductor, and an animator that he keeps locked in the dungeon. What could go wrong? Allegro non troppo—an irreverent send-up of Disney’s Fantasia—blends live-action slapstick with cheeky animation for a film as joyful and raunchy as it is thoughtful and cutting.
