Marionette Cartoon

[IndustrialKitty]

This is something that my boyfriend was talking to me about the other day. It didn't sound familiar to me but it might to one of ya'll.


This was something he saw when he was a kid so im going to go with it had to have been made in the 70s or early 80s.

From when he remembers and what he told me it was a cartoon about an old man who made marrionettes and then at some point dies. He told me there was some dialogue at the end about life and the marionette strings.

thats all i can remember from what he told me about it. ill have to ask him to tell me again so i can update this with more info.


Any ideas?

Although that looks cool - what im looking for is animated though.
