Nobody talks about this one. A 20-year-old Yves Saint-Laurent drew these cartoons in 1956, and fifty years later someone finally animated them, meaning you're watching pure, unfiltered creative id from before fashion swallowed him whole. Lulu's logic is dream logic. There's no plot that matters, just a girl doing impossible things in impossible places, and the show moves at the speed of someone daydreaming on expensive fabric. It costs nothing to watch and everything to sit with something this genuinely strange coming from someone this famous.
Lulu is a mischievous girl whose imagination keeps producing bizarre fantasies, and this 13-episode comedy special follows where those flights of fancy take her. The cartoons come from a picture book by the late fashion designer Yves Saint-Laurent, who drew them in 1956 at age 20 while he was working for the Christian Dior couture house. The animated version brings his odd little heroine to the screen.
