I have a huge fondness for the things that are bad for me. At 14 I and a friend found three big bottles of wine behind and under the back door of a church that forbade alcohol. Altho we were underage we took someone’s (several someones I imagine) sin upon ourselves that Sunday. When my mother asked where I got it and I told her, she said, “You’re lying!”
The first time I ran SALUDOS AMIGOS and THE THREE CABALLEROS I was stunned by the graphic design. Wow!!!!
Maybe the artists got contact highs in the clubs they hung out at while doing research.
A few years ago I was gifted with DMT. I was told that while it only lasts ten minutes those ten minutes feel like eternity. They do. The thing that most fascinated me was that everything I experienced (the ultra vivid colors, the shapes, EVERYTHING) was exactly as we see in South American art including the vivid colors and design in these two films.
I’m not happy with the world the kids are inheriting. I like my cartoon characters smoking cigars when that is true to their character.
More and more people are going to be saying one thing in church and doing another as fast as they can as soon as they can. My buddy and I won’t be here much longer to save them.
I became friends with Grim Natwick, Bob Clampett. Chuck Jones, Friz Freleng, Shamus Culhane and Zack Schwartz, all major animation artists. Their answer when asked by kids what drugs they had taken to enable them to create such spectacular work, “Aspirin.”
I like that.–Reg Hartt
