    A Tribute to Tex Avery
  

*by V***E on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on August 28, 2015*

Tex Avery was one of the greatest cartoonists and comic geniuses that ever lived. Part of his success in the animation industry was doing "not trying to compete with Disney, but rather do what Disney wouldn't dare to do". He was more interested in getting a laugh out of his audience.Unfortunately, there are so few good history books out there about non-Disney animation studios. Part of that is that Disney has the best track record of preserving its history, that not very many other studios come close. Another reason might be a lack of interest with the general public.Most of this book is filled with essays by fans and other filmmakers. It really should have been more of a biography. What makes this book worth the purchase alone are the interviews with Tex Avery himself and two with his key personnel, especially since these are the only interviews with Tex that are available to the public (to my knowledge). There is also a complete filmography with anecdotes for some titles (which is outdated, since the dates for the WB cartoons are based on copyright dates rather than the release dates). Another downside is that all the images are black and white. There is another book on Tex Avery by John Canemaker that should be worth checking out.Here's hoping that another well researched book on Tex Avery will be published in the future (as well as more interviews).

    A Man of Unique Talent
  

*by P***H on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on February 25, 2012*

The word "genius" evokes images of Albert Einstein, or Jean-Paul Sartre.  And yet, genius cuts accross many art forms and industries.The cartoon was still in infant stage when Tex Avery entered it's realm.  It was a convergence of fortuitous timing.  He joined a team of almost limitless creativity, and a studio that gave him almost limitless leeway.  The results were spectacular.  His style, his passion, and his brilliant and bizarre sense of humor were allowed to move to the fore.  Millions watched his cartoons, came to imitate and savor his characters, and love a set of possibilies that up to then, had seemed impossible.The circumstances Avery created made people laugh in incredulity.  The plotlines were frenetic, and the action and stories were mesmerizing.  Today, with many of his cartoons more than 70 years old, they still have a fresh, timeless energy about them.  They are classic, and can be enjoyed by adults and children too young to remember their inception.This book captures Avery in the final years of his life.  It shows a living legend, who is too modest to comprehend his greatness.  It is a quick read, and both tells his story, and the story of the cartoon characters he created.  Many are part of the fabric of our culture.  Bugs Bunny, Chillie Willie, Woody Woodpecker and Droopy.  There are many pictures, and some funny stories of the eccentric personalities that populated the movie studios during that prolific and seminal time of Hollywood.By all means, read this book!

    Best set of Avery interviews!
  

*by K***I on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on November 2, 2018*

The author's one-on-one interviews with the cartoonist legend are the key feature.Also, the bibliography of every cartoon film ever done by Avery is valuable.
