WHO FRAMED ROGER RABBIT?

Part of Midnight Movies

Curmudgeonly detective Eddie Valiant (the great Bob Hoskins, SUPER MARIO BROS. (35mm)) is the only thing that stands between a falsely accused cartoon rabbit and the wrath of Judge Doom and his toon-killing dip in this groundbreaking comic caper where cartoon antics and film noir archetypes collide through a dazzling combination of live action and animation.

“This movie is not only great entertainment but a breakthrough in craftsmanship – the first film to convincingly combine real actors and animated cartoon characters in the same space in the same time and make it look real. I’ve never seen anything like it before.” —Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times (Jun 2, 1988) 



“If you don’t like WHO FRAMED ROGER RABBIT?, have your pulse checked. Robert Zemeckis' multi-dimensional free-for-all, where cartoon figures bump, quip and cavort with flesh-and-blood characters, is not only a technical tour de force, it crackles with entertainment.” —Desson Howe, Washington Post (Jun 24, 1988)
