    I know that one. I’ve been meaning to draw this for you for a while now, but I just can’t seem to get around to it.

      B.

      I’m not even surprised. I already know of your immense knowledge of animated deep cuts. I made (some) effort to find you something where nobody says anything and is a little bit topical.

        Believe it or not, no matter how late I ever stayed up, The National Film Board of Canada never played that one on the T.V. It’s new to me.

            It’s relatively easy to publish a cartoon like that in 1946. Obviously I understand that it’s not necessarily about what it’s about, but it’s still easy to publish a cartoon like that in 1946. I’ve always held the troublesome opinion that you can’t make a truly great cartoon unless you’re at risk of getting beheaded. And I don’t feel like I’ve made any strides today towards getting my head chopped off.

              I understand. The pursuit of the tormented artist content creator. I agree that is the one who produces the - to use your words - truly great work. Maybe next time we can look at some war-period Toyen ink.

              This has been an inspiring exchange. I daresay am a little bit less certain about everything.
