Full International Trailers for Beloved ‘Robot Dreams’ Animated Film

“Overflowing with handcrafted charm…” Curzon in the UK has revealed their official trailer for the beloved animated film Robot Dreams, which first premiered at the 2023 Cannes & Annecy Film Festivals last year. The film snuck in and ended up getting nominated for Best Animated Film at the 2024 Academy Awards (after a small qualifying theatrical release in the US last fall). Neon has finally scheduled Robot Dreams to open in US theaters in May 2024, but we’re still waiting for their full trailer to drop online (after a teaser). In the meantime, both UK and Australian distributors have unveiled new trailers – they’re pretty much the same thing but with different quotes swapped in. A story about friendship, its importance, and its fragility. The dialogue-free animated film is based on the popular graphic novel by Sara Varon, about the adventures and misfortunes of Dog and Robot in NYC during the ’80s. Dog is lonely so he orders a Robot companion, but then Robot gets stuck in the sand at the beach one day. I wrote a glowing review of this out of Cannes, and I’m quoted in the Australian version (second trailer below). It’s opening first in UK cinemas this March. // Continue Reading ›
