NORMAN MCLAREN - REVISITED

Pound, pound, pound … sometimes I feel as if I am on the wrong end of a pile driver. The constant bickering between Rhett or Rick is wearing me down.

Almost two years ago, I posted this short, stop-motion animation by Normal McLaren who won an Oscar for Best Documentary (Short Subject) in 1953.  Yikes: 1953!  You would think we would have learned something in the past half century, in the past 234 years since the republic was born, in the past 6,000 years of recorded history …

Never mind: Just watch the damn film (and pay attention).
