After the successful Back to the Future (1985), director Robert Zemeckis turned his sights to something even more ambitious, a full-length feature combining live actors and animated ones. We start our journey through 1,001 movies with lighter - albeit technically groundbreaking and comedic - fare, with the story of an alcoholic private eye on the quest of saving an animated bunny rabbit.  The movie was a box office smash and won Oscars for Best Film Editing, Sound Effects Editing, Visual Effects, and a Special Achievement Award for its technical advancements.
