"Sita Sings the Blues" at Central Cinema

"Rama, Hanuman, Sita, Rain" by Nina Paley via CCL
Go see this amazing movie (100% Tomatometer rating). Here is what Roger Ebert had to say:
I am enchanted. I am swept away. I am smiling from one end of the film to the other. It is astonishingly original. It brings together four entirely separate elements and combines them into a great whimsical chord. You might think my attention would flag while watching An animated version of the epic Indian tale of Ramayana set to the 1920's jazz vocals of Annette Hanshaw. Quite the opposite.
If you cannot make it to Central Cinema in the next week (it's playing until 5/20), you can view Sita Sings the Blues online for free.
