Jack and the Cuckoo-Clock Heart Page #7

Synopsis: Edinburgh, late 19th century. Little Jack is born on a day so cold that his heart remains frozen. Madeleine the midwife replaces his heart with a cuckoo-clock. It will work, as long as Jack follows the rules, mainly not falling in love. But his encounter with a fiery-eyed girl singing on a street corner and his decision to chase after her will test the resistance of his makeshift heart to the breaking point... Jack and the Cuckoo-Clock Heart is a magnificent love story set in an exciting period full of fabulous inventions, eccentric characters and fantastic adventures. Adapted by Mathias Malzieu from his best-selling novel and the gold-selling album by his band Dionysos, this superbly animated movie is about passion and acceptance of others.

# From the spines

of her cactus heart #

# Love for her was the spring that

sprung from his clockwork heart #

# Fell apart... #

Oh, there's nothing quite so

amusing as recklessness.

When you're 14 and gallivanting all

across Europe on the trail of a girl,

I'd say that your reckless gene

must be highly developed, n'est pas.

# Can his ticker take it? #

# How much joy

would break it? #

# Can his ticker take it? #

# Loving you could break it all #

# Miss Acacia #

# Sharp stiletto heels #

# She had a cactus heart #

# Sharp stiletto heels #

# She had a cactus heart #

# Sharp stiletto heels #

# She had a cactus heart #

# Sharp stiletto heels #

# She had a cactus heart. #
