Chuck Jones - Hugh Kenner - Bog

"A comic genius, up there with Keaton and Mack Sennett. I thank him for teaching me so much about breaking all the laws of physics . . . just for the joy of it."--Steven Spielberg "One of America's great filmmakers." --Newsweek "The antsy, unkillable vitality of Jone's draftsmanship is an indication of what sets him apart from every other cartoon director--a signature that's the equivalent of the elusive musical concept called swing. A single line drawn by Chuck Jones implies hilarious movement the way a single note played by Louis Armstrong or Lester Young implies irresistible rhythms." --Terrence Rafferty, The New Yorker
