...distinctive shapes of America through the window of a Greyhound bus. Having completed his M.A. in illustration at London's Royal College of Art in 1966, British-born Holmes was embarked on a 99-days-for-$99 visual tour of the U.S., during which he filled his sketch pads and memory with images of cars, drive-in movie theaters, billboard displays and fast-food emporiums. "I was tremendously influenced by what I saw and by new techniques used in American graphics," he says. "I decided, however, that I could never work here." It took a decade and the entreaties...

In much of the work, abstraction combines with realism to produce ambiguous and often disturbing images. "The Fabulous Beast," a pencil sketch by Max Ernst, shows a half-organic, half-machine animal.

The kittens used by the juggler (a gent listed in the credits as Pig Eye Jackson) seem pretty confused, and they don't do much except twist a little in the air. Martin expresses his ambivalent disgust, but since he helped write the screenplay, and since real kittens, no doubt much confused, must have been used to film the sequence, the moviegoer...
