Just in time for Halloween!

Check out the fourth installment of our interview with Ray Pointer, animator, historian and author of
 The Art and Inventions of Max Fleischer. This fascinating - and final - portion of our interview focuses on the Surrealism found in so many Fleischer cartoons, and why we shouldn't let it get in the way of enjoying the opportunity to be amused.
It's the perfect addition to your Halloween viewing, including some seriously surreal clips, like the one above from "Bubbles." Check it out here!

Ray Pointer's book, The Art and Inventions of Max Fleischer, is the result of more than 40 years of investigating and studying Fleischer cartoons, and the work of Max Fleischer in particular.

As you can imagine, we were 
curious to talk to Mr. Pointer about this exciting new publication: what led him to write it? What has been the impact of Fleischer Studios, and its innovative work, on animation history?

For this interview we matched Mr. Pointer with Jane Reid, a member of the Fleischer Studios Board of Directors ... and Max Fleischer's granddaughter!
