Angels and Balloons - Albert Lamorisse's "The Red Balloon" and Ken Russell's "Amelia and the Angel"

We examine Lamorisse's "Red Balloon" in context of the rest of his filmography, then I cheer myself up with a discussion on "Amelia and the Angel", which was obviously influenced by "The Red Balloon" and has perhaps the cutest dog to ever appear in a film, except for your home movies.
