A Sight & Sound Book of the Year Jez Stewart charts the course
of this extraordinarily fertile area of British film from early
experiments with stop-motion and the flourishing of animated
drawings during WWI. He reveals how the rockier interwar period set
the shape of the industry in enduring ways, and how creatives like
Len Lye and Lotte Reiniger brought art to advertising and sponsored
films, building a foundation for such distinctive talents as Bob
Godfrey, Alison De Vere and George Dunning to unleash their
independent visions in the age of commercial TV. Stewart highlights
the integral role of women in the industry, the crucial boost
delivered by the arrival of Channel 4, the emergence of online
animation and much more. The book features 'close-up' analyses of
key animators such as Lancelot Speed and Richard Williams, as well
as more thematic takes on art, politics and music. It builds a
framework for better appreciating Britain's landmark contributions
to the art of animation, including Halas and Batchelor's Animal
Farm (1954), Dunning's Yellow Submarine (1968) and the creations of
Aardman Animations.

With the outbreak of World War II, two adolescent boys find
themselves in jobs beyond their capabilities: Ray Reilly as the
apprentice embalmer at Dugan and Son and Bill Dugan in trying to
convince his parents that there is a role for him in the family
business. Ray soon gains knowledge and skills to prepare him for
life: hearse driving, embalming, roof patching, the importance of
comic books in an adolescent girl's life, the hidden needs of adult
female pianists, and avoiding death when placed between a pack of
crazed dogs and a squinty-eyed old sheriff with a big game rifle.
At the war's end, both young men have their education's enriched by
the local returning veterans.
