Rose's technique demonstrates two methods probably unfamiliar to the non-animator. She has drawn herself into the movie but her own portrait in the movie has an almost photographic quality while the characters are obviously hand-drawn. In fact, it is only when she passes her pencil over her face and becomes similar in style to her characters that her self-portrait begins. Until then, she has taken advantage of a trick called "rotoscoping", a painstaking process which involves tracing the projection of live-action footage, frame by frame, onto paper laid over frosted glass. The result...
...action takes place during the Thirty Years' War. Mother Courage (Mary Lou Rosato) is an intrepid trader with a sassy tongue and a saucy past. She leeches off the advancing and retreating armies with the goods in her hand-drawn wagon. But her losses bitterly outweigh her profits. While she is haggling over the sale of a belt buckle, her favorite son Eilif (Kevin Conroy) is dragooned to the wars by a sly recruiting officer. Eilif dies. While she tries to shave the price for the release of another son (Jeffrey Hayenga), he is executed. Finally, her mute daughter...
...soldiers stood guard in the northern Italian town of Seveso, hundreds of villagers last week loaded into their cars or hand-drawn carts the few belongings they were allowed to take, then fled southward. Behind them they left the bodies of scores of animals in a desolated area now sealed off by barbed wire. The cause of the exodus: a cloud of toxic gas caused by an explosion at a chemical plant in Meda, twelve miles north of Milan...
...fought them valiantly, but was finally clubbed into submission-carrying with him into jail Rubin's tactical diary. Only then was it revealed that Big Bob was really an undercover cop, Robert Pierson, 35. Chicago police pointed ominously to such entries in Rubin's diary as a hand-drawn map of the Hilton Hotel area and a reflection that "we really should attend McCarthy rallies and recruit pro-McCarthys for our marches. This lends us the respectability of a pro-establishment group." Big Bob's duplicity did not faze Rubin, who said, when released...
Today, although well-oiled lobbying may be more effective and mass demonstrations more dramatic, the U.S. is witnessing a marked resurgence of petitions. With Chartist fervor, miles of signatures are collected each year on hand-drawn circulars passed from neighbor to neighbor, in organized mail campaigns, or to adorn elaborate newspaper ads. The greatest impetus to the petition business has been Viet Nam, but other, infinitely varied causes range from civic issues, such as the restoration of trolleys on New Orleans' Canal Street, to campus concerns, such as student demands at Berkeley that the university hospital provide birth control...
