Rezension von tavm

This short is a collage of photo clippings from various newspapers. Most of them is of then-President Eisenhower. There are also landmarks of not only the Statue of Liberty but also of the Leaning Tower of Pisa and the Eiffel Tower. There's also some recorded music and many sound recordings from the real things as opposed to effects. I discovered Science Friction from YouTube as linked from Cartoon Brew by Amid. It had this and other Stan van der Beek shorts that are not listed in IMDb. Amid wrote that Terry Gilliam may have been influenced by these when he became the animator on "Monty Python's Flying Circus" and you can see how true that could be when watching this short. Perhaps a little long but I was fascinated by almost the whole 9-minute thing. Certainly worth a look for anyone wanting to see something a little unusual.
