A talking shell and his aging nana get help from '60 Minutes -- and Lesley Stahl -- reuniting with their family members
At 1 inch tall, Marcel is a garrulous shell with a decent shoe game who lives alone with his grandmother Connie when a budding filmmaker finds out their family is missing. After the filmmaker posts a video of Marcel, fans help the pair reconnect with their lost loved ones. Sprung from a three-minute viral hit in 2010 created by director Fleischer Camp and actor Slate, “Marcel the Shell With Shoes On” is an endearing stop-motion animation feature about grief, risk and togetherness.
“What I find inspiring about Marcel is he doesn’t take any obstacle or loss super personally,” Fleischer Camp says. “He doesn’t feel like it’s an injustice and has faith that he’ll find a way through it.” Marcel takes that leap, with some encouragement from his nana, and appears on a “60 Minutes” episode that leads to him reuniting with his family. The moment is charmingly captured with the camera pulling out, revealing dozens of shells on a bed watching the episode a laptop.
