Movie Reviews of Winsor McCay - The Master Edition
Movie Review: The real McCay
Summary: 4 Stars
This collection contains the surviving films, complete and incomplete, from the man who called himself the "inventor of animated cartoons." Although McCay's animated output dates from 1911 to 1921, other American animators would not produce work comparable to "Gertie the Dinosaur," "The Sinking of the Lusitania," or "The Flying House" until well into the 1930s.
Because these cartoons can be found on YouTube and other streaming-video sites, only die-hard animation buffs need purchase this particular DVD. Still, the presentation here is superb, especially given the condition of the materials. Animation historian John Canemaker provides knowledgeable audio commentary, and even tosses in a brief archival interview with one of McCay's assistants.
