These 30 songs, complete with your basic piquant photographs in a ridiculously overpriced package, are a rich pleasure; but still one misses the sense of discovery, the excitement of hearing something that lingers on half-understood in the senses, the irritating stimulating grain of dust that turns into a pearl.

The Disneyland display, a series of museum pieces and classic frame blow-ups, led to a projected sequence from one of the full-length cartoons--Sleeping...
...Hanna-Barbera (Yogi Bear) lack power and potential for complete realization of its creator's imaginative ideas. A strange animal resulted: stylistic form is almost non-existent, the movement of the cartoon figures is executed competently but no better, editing is largely unoriginal, and Edelmann's drawings--the frame content--consequently become everything...
