The Red Balloon - 1956 (Le Ballon Rouge) FULL MOVIE



The Red Balloon (French: Le Ballon Rouge) is a 1956 fantasy short film, directed by French filmmaker Albert Lamorisse.
The thirty-four minute short, which follows the adventures of a young boy who one day finds a sentient, mute, red balloon, was filmed in the Ménilmontant neighborhood of Paris, France.
The Red Balloon has inspired Le Voyage du Ballon Rouge, a 2008 French feature film, directed by Hou Hsiao-hsien and starring Juliette Binoche. It also seems to be the inspiration for Bob Godfrey and Zlatko Grgic's animated short, Dream Doll,] and the central scene of Pixar's "Up" Don Hertzfeld's animated short Billy's Balloon bares a strong resemblance to the film, namely in it's being about a sentient red balloon and an intrigued child, and both end with a gathering of other sentient balloons, though Billy's Balloon is much darker.
It won numerous awards, including an Oscar for Lamorisse for writing the best original screenplay in 1956 and the Palme d'Or for short films at Cannes. The film also became popular with children and educators.
Lamorisse used his children as actors in the film. His son, Pascal Lamorisse, plays Pascal in the main role, and his daughter Sabine portrays a little girl.
