The Cult of Lincoln

What joy. Last night, I dreamed about a movie I saw in first grade. Wrote I in my sketchbook (now more like a journal, but hey):
Random Childhood recollection: an animated movie featuring a boy with white skin and a circular head, living with people (blue skin?) and cone-shaped heads. A favourite game involved throwing a large ring into the air and catching it on the cone. Because the boy felt left out, his father made him a cone hat. Another "normal" boy challenged him to a ring-catching contest. Can't remember who won. Later, the boy went off in search of more people like him. He had a dog named "Arrow". One strain of music went "Me and my Arrow...". I saw this around the same time as "Yellow Submarine", meaning K-2. Unless this is all a dream, in which case such an idea will make me rich!
I talked to Bri (one of my good friends and a phenomenal artist), and she started spazzing on my first line. "The Point!", she cried. Evidently, this was one of her favourite movies. I easily associated it with the Beatles, as it was narrated by Ringo. I found that my summary was a bit off, but still more or less accurate. Bri hummed "Me and my Arrow" all through class. I must find a copy of "The Point" and watch it immediately. I wonder if they still have it at Premiere Video... gah, now I'm itching to get back home. ::looks at calendar and grouses pitifully::
