The King of Indie Animation

 

Bill Plympton, The King of the Independent Animation, makes his first Cinefamily appearance, and presents a program of his classic shorts, new films, works-in-progress and a selection of vintage cartoons that inspired him! Bill’s session with us includes: Shuteye Hotel, a film noir murder mystery; Santa: The Fascist Years, which uncovers Santa’s un-jolly past (featuring Mathew Modine); Eat, a comedy set in a French restaurant; and, Sex and Violence, which was, according to Plympton’s website, “too extreme for the men’s magazine market.” Clips from his forthcoming animated feature Cheatin’ and his “Hear ‘Em Say” music video for Kanye West will also be screened. After the program, stick around for a Q&A with Bill, moderated by Jerry Beck!
