Preston Sturges, the movies' screw-bailer supreme, would have appreciated Billy's dad Rand (Hoyt Axton), an absent-minded inventor whose contraptions range from the Bathroom Buddy Shaving Kit to the Peltzer Peeler Juicer, which ingests oranges and splatters their pulp against the kitchen wall in Gremlins' first glint of far-out domestic violence...

To complicate things further, the man at the café-melting away, like the elusive Pimpernel, into the wood work-probably depicts Gris' favorite character pulp fiction. He was a supercrook named Fantómas, whose nefarious deeds were eagerly devoured by Picasso, Apollinaire and everyone in the cubist circle. Appearing and disappearing at will, frustrating the law at every turn, Fantómas was to cubism what Superman, 50 years later, would...
