    I'll be the first to admit I didn't get this movie. If I had to guess, I would probably say the blues aspect simply turned me off. However, it's still an incredible work, and considering that you can legally watch it online, I honestly can think of no reason why you would not go check this out immediately.

    This gem of an animated film was released online (legally) about a year ago. It's nothing less of one of the most charming and most beautiful animated films of all time. If you have ANY interest in this tiny movie, do yourself a favor and check it out. I promise you that you won't regret it.

    Sita Sings the Blues is a delight to watch if only for the animation; it's done in several different styles that make it more visually compelling. It's a bit short on story and I didn't personally enjoy the soundtrack that caused so much drama, even if it is integral to the storyline. I enjoyed the back-story of how this film was made more than the storyline itself, but, again, the visuals and the fact that it's freely distributed make this a must-see, if only to support a woman who poured her heart and soul into this project.… Expand

    With Sita, Paley brings the same, highly specific and very personal vision we associate with the best indie and alternative filmmaking to the animated form, and the result is riveting.

    The film, dazzling and poignant and five years in the making, retells the ancient Indian epic "The Ramayana" from a gentle but insistent feminist perspective.
