One of the best films of last year arrives on Stan today. Liam Maguren dives deep into the morbid magic of Memoir of a Snail. Adam Elliot is to Australia what Aardman is to England. A national treasure? Of course. An Academy Award winner? Also true (for 2003 short Harvie Krumpet). But most importantly, an animation auteur whose style has become instantly recognisable worldwide.
