Cartoons

[porphyry]

Here are some cartoons (not made by people who seem to hate animation as so many modern ones oddly seem to be):

Strange use of Figaro on the soundtrack:

Another triumph of modernity over art, but who can resist it?

Snow White in Hell:

(made long before the Disney version)

Those were great. I love how old cartoons use the "industrial process" motif (very "Modern Times"), like the first.

And "Snow White in Hell" - the Fleishchers were truly surrealistic. Have you ever seen "Rubberland?"

Wonderful!

Interesting how the elves mined the colours and 'pumped' them towards the surface, as opposed to distributing them in a rather more artisan way (like painting them, for instance).
