"Wonderful. Enormously refreshing, because it's a constant reminder of all the possibilities inherent in the art of animation." --Roy Disney
For more than two decades John Canemaker has created films that charm, enlighten and touch audiences. His "toons" (which have been featured in everything from The World According to Garp to Pee Wee's Playhouse) are often daring, frequently hilarious and always compassionate. Showcasing Canemaker's wide-ranging talent and emotional resonance, Marching To A Different Toon includes his animation classics: the whimsical Confessions Of A Stardreamer, the astonishingly lovely Bottom's Dream, the clever and witty Confessions Of A Stand-Up, the enchanting The Wizard's Son and the wondrously beautiful Bridgehampton.
As a bonus, this collector's edition also features selections from Canemaker's collaborative work, including Behind The Scenes, The DNA Concerto, early TV spots for Gay Men's Health Crisis and excerpts from the award-winning documentaries What Children Think Of When They Think Of The Bomb? and Break The Silence: Kids Against Child Abuse. These magical and moving films are enduring treasures of animation that will delight viewers for generations to come.
