Highly Animated

IRELAND has a lot of good things to be animated about for a change with two Irish made films – The Secret of Kells and Granny O’Grimm’s Sleeping Beauty – among this year’s Oscar nominations.

Another Irish-made film, The Door, is also up for the best live action short film.

The Secret of Kells made the top-five for the best animated feature film of the year, while Granny O’Grimm’s Sleeping Beauty is nominated for the best animated short film.
