Note / MvW: ‘A blue-winged macaw is just as beautiful as a red-winged macaw and that’s why I had both birds turn a somersault on their perch.’

Note / Van Warmerdam is sensitive to the directness of onomatopoeic appeals in titles. The titles Rrrolle – blue and Rrrolle – red are examples of this onomatopoeia.
