The Little Prince

I just saw this last night (australian dvd version) and yes, did enjoy it.
But just wondering if anyone else out there thought of "The Little Prince" when they heard/ saw the title?? - Because I did. This connection was made again for me when the girl says "I will tame this fox" - very little prince like considering there is a whole chapter in the book where he sets about taming a fox...

perhaps the film maker was inspired... (not to mention both book and movie are french)

also didn't understand why the australian version didn't give option of subtiles or not - i'm not a big fan of dubbed movies - would prefer to hear the original language and read english subtitles - just my opinion

I agree. It constantly reminded me of The Little Prince. It's a too great coincidence, so I'm sure the film maker was aware of it.

If I ever find truth, I'm gonna let you know..

Yes, I also think of The Little Prince as I watch the movie. And I think there can be an inspiration.
