I Want To Go Home (1989) ***

An American cartoonist tries to find his daughter while attending an art exhibition in Paris. Screamingly funny comedy written by Jules Feiffer and directed by Alain Resnais. It's a sincere tribute to the American cartoon artists. One should absolutely avoid a horrendously dubbed French version, which doesn't make any sense, since the crucial point of the film relates to the American cartoonist's inability and unwillingness to communicate in French.
