When the Golden Globes go virtual on March 1, Cartoon Saloon will once again be a hand-drawn David to the CGI Goliath of a major studio. Wolfwalkers, an animated jewel of a feature by the Irish studio, is one of the contenders, but the favourite is Soul, Pixar s latest box office behemoth.
When the Oscar nominations are announced later next month, the same battle lines will be drawn. In a sense it s déjà vu for the Kilkenny-based company. Both times when Cartoon Saloon has been nominated for an Oscar, either Pixar or its parent company, Disney, has walked away with the award, so it s understandable that Wolfwalkers co-director Tomm Moore says, I m not counting chickens. I am glad we ve gone from being a complete outsider to being a definite contender, but I think it s going to be a difficult year [to win] because Soul is an incredible movie. With the buzz, there is a chance, but it s not my first rodeo.
