This short by Bill Plympton was included on the PLIMPTOONS DVD. This 60 minute set of early Bill Plympton shorts is a must-see for animation freaks, but since it's not his latest stuff, such wonderful shorts as GUIDE DOG and PARKING aren't included. Most of the shorts are "fall on the floor laughing" funny and only a crabby old curmudgeon couldn't enjoy these films! This is among the earliest works by Plympton and appeared before his much more beautifully rendered cartoons he's most famous for today. However, despite having very simple animation, the story is exceptional and makes this a short worth seeing.
The film is about a line who narrates the story and behaves, at times, just like a living creature. Though he has aspirations of becoming a great work of art, he also finds time to meet and marry Vera, break up and finally meet another lady (this one is NOT a cartoon like Vera but a real lady). It's all very absurd and instead of the usual Plympton style, it uses stop-motion as well as some live action. The end result is a captivating and strange film that is sure to entertain.
By the way, is it just me but doesn't the line sound a lot like Ernie from "Sesame Street"?
