Dog Days (Daze)



I picked up a copy of Bill Plympton`s Dog Days DVD at Comic Con. I have always been a big fan of Bill`s work. But his dog cartoons are something special. While I was at the booth Bill ask me to write a short review of Dog Days. I watched the complete DVD Thursday night and Friday morning and wrote the following review which I share here:

Bill Plymton’s dog is a perfect cartoon character: Charlie Brown in sycophantic manic dog drag. Dog Days collects the first three of Bill’s twisted and hysterical dog shorts along with The Fan and the Flower, and other notable Plympton short animations, commercials and music videos. A very enjoyable change from Hollywood studio fare.
