I’ve noticed that having to verbalize every thought that crosses your mind while watching something means you miss a lot of the storytelling, especially the more subtle stuff.

Narration: “– – for, in the next astonishing instant….” a Jack Kirby panel: a giant angry T. Rex emerges from the smoke with a loud roar and in the lower right corner, a stunned Aquaman looks up and shouts, “NEPTUNES TRIDENT!“

Studio Ghibli fell in love with this film and gave its director a movie deal. Master animators like Yuri Norstein call it a favorite.

Its name is Father and Daughter, and we've explored its story:

Work/Life Balance is essential for a writer. Your brain is the whole deal. If you're tired, exhausted, unhappy, or all three, you're not going to be writing at your best. Be sure to take days off, don't beat yourself up for not making your pages, and get the rest you deserve. Fuck hustle culture.

I had no idea that the phrase “Back to the old drawing board” comes from this Peter Arno cartoon from March 1st 1941’s New Yorker. It’s rather splendid to be able to date the birth of what would become part of everyday speech with such precision.
