"The Iron Giant" deserves it's place in the top 250. I love Disney films, but there's not a one that can touch the clever humour, or emotional range of this wonderful film. It's perfect viewing for kids, but adults will find value in the 50s references: the "duck-and-cover" educational film, the B-movie about the killer brain and the hepcat played by Harry Connick Jr. With beautiful animation (how did they get the robot to be expressive?) and a clever script, this film is absolutely unmissable. Ted Hughes would have been proud.
