A jovially narrated animated tale of the eponymous, blue-eyed and blonde young boy whose antecedent was a Scot called MacDuff! He was a brave man who won many battles before this great, great, great grandfather travelled to France where they cannibalised his name to "Dufy". So now, back to present day La Havre where the distinctly un-French looking "Raoul" lives with his extended family, drawing and painting and dreaming of being a millionaire with a castle and picture gallery of his own. Dad shares all these ambitions, but also requires his lad to make some income - so painting in the evening after work in the day. He grows up and finally manages to cultivate his first moustache - he was just so blonde nobody could see it, even him! That just seemed to inspire more paintings - just about everything features and after a few hard years he starts to attract the notice of critics, punters and, of course, copyists. "Raoul" was becoming an inspiration! An institution! Still, though, nobody could see his moustache! This is quite an entertaining animation that shows a little of how one original idea can permeate society but it's also a bit long and could probably lose two or three minutes to better condense the amusing concept. Fun, though.
