It’s Not Valentine’s Day Without a Few Mummies

February 14, 2012 by Betsy Bird   2 comments

I alternate between feeling that it’s like Sfar and Guibert’s The Professor’s Daughter (which has a happier ending) and the music video for Everlasting Love.

Happy Valentine’s Day, everybody.

    Hee. When I first saw this video a couple of months ago, I told a friend that it reminded me of the utterly charming “The Professor’s Daughter.” I mean how can you resist a mummy in love who gets intoxicated on tea.

    Happy Valentine’s Day and thank you for a wonderful blog. You’re the best.
