#017 - Tex Avery: Of Mice, Wolves, Bunnies, Squirrels… and Men
Om avsnittet
Lusty wolves, sadistic squirrels, neurotic pigs… This week on the podcast, we're diving into the gleefully deranged universe of Tex Avery. If it was Disney who built the church of animation, it was Avery who spent his whole career slinging eggs at it. As a creative force, Tex Avery didn't care about character, didn't care about plot, didn't even really care about the rules of cinematic continuity. He cared about one thing and one thing only: landing the laff.
We trace the evolution of this legendary cartoon-maker from his formative years at Warner Brothers to his golden years at MGM, cataloguing his career-long (mis)treatment of bodies and plot premises as disposable and fungible. With this episode, we try to map the contours of Tex Avery's rich and strange cinematic universe.
