Reg Hartt: The CineForum (aka THE Public Enemy)

“Reg Hartt is an island unto himself,” a fellow was told. The comment was not meant as a compliment. Every kick is a free boost forward. Thich Nhat Hanh has written, “When he was eighty, the Buddha knew that he was going to pass away in a few months, and he knew that his disciples were going to miss him. During the last six months, around the city of Vaisali, he used to talk to the monks and the nuns about taking refuge within yourself. The expression is atadipa. Ata means self, dipa means island. When you go back to that island, you experience peace and stability. The Buddha is there, the Dharma is there, and the Sangha is there.” Yes, Reg Hartt IS an island unto himself.

Sunday at 2pm. The CineForum, Toronto. M5T 2S9. Minimum Donation $20. Private. All welcome.

In Hollywood Bob Clampett was seen as a guy who made old cartoons.

In Toronto I saw Bob Clampett as an artist on a par with Cezanne, Dali, Hockney, Picasso, Warhol.

His daughter Ruth has written and self-published a wonderful book. It ain’t cheap. It was expensively done. The love of this daughter for her father is on every page. I felt myself bathing in it.

I ordered my copy from here: https://stuartngbooks.com/ . –Reg Hartt
