Marcel the Shell with Shoes (movie)

 This is an utterly charming movie about a shell named Marcel who lives with his grandmother in a house that is now an Airbnb because the couple that lived there split up. Marcel 1) is desperate to find his family, 2) loves Lesley Stahl and 60 Minutes, and 3) becomes an Internet sensation when a man named  Dean moves into the house--which is how all 3 aspects of his life come together.

The movie is creative, sweet, sad, and funny. And I highly recommend it.

(Jenny Slate voices Marcel and Isabella Rossellini voices the grandmother--who calls him Marcello.)
