The Danish had also some high quality traditional animation. I specially like the movies of "Jungledyret Hugo" from the nineties. Recently also computer animated.

Solen synker, rød som blod
Watarama wam wa lu ta lu
Den spejler sig i den store flod
Higorolioushni Wamba
Skyggerne vokser sig sorte og lange
Derfor er vi temmelig mange
Bittesmå, forskræmte og bange
Ængstelige
Jungledyr!
Som trænger til at høre et eventyr
Fortæl, Hugo, fortæl

Månen stiger, rund og gul
Watarama wam wa lu ta lu
Nu kommer vi frem fra vores skjul
Higorolioushni Wamba
Skyggerne skjuler rovdyr og slange
Derfor er vi temmelig mange
Bittesmå, forskræmte og bange
Ængstelige
Jungledyr!
Som trænger til at høre et eventyr
Fortæl, Hugo, fortæl
Watarama wam wa lu ta lu
Fortæl, Hugo, fortæl
Watarama wam wa lu ta lu
Fortæl, Hugo, fortæl

Nu graver vi en hule
Hvor vi to kan bo
Et sted hvor vi kan skjule
Os i fred og ro

The Triplets of Belleville

""The story focuses on Madame Souza, an elderly woman raising her young grandson, Champion. Souza notices her grandson is sad and lonely so she buys him a puppy named Bruno to cheer him up. Although he is initially happy, he quickly becomes melancholic once again. After discovering that Champion has a keen interest in road bicycle racing, because it is implied that Champion's deceased parents were bicyclists, she buys him a tricycle. Years later, Champion becomes a professional cyclist with Souza as his coach.
Eventually, Champion enters the Tour de France, but during the race, he and two other riders are kidnapped by two French mafia henchmen and brought to a bustling metropolis in North America...""

This film was highly praised by audiences and critics for its unique style of animation.
The film was nominated for two Academy awards:
-Best Animated Feature.
-Best Original Song for "Belleville rendez-vous".

A masterpiece of French cinema...
