Question: What famous musical is this character from?
We scored an exclusive interview with Israeli film director Yael Hersonski about her critically acclaimed debut A Film Unfinished. At the end of WWII, 62 minutes of raw film, having sat undisturbed in an East German archive, was discovered. Shot by the Nazis in Warsaw in May 1942, and labeled simply "Ghetto," this footage quickly became a resource for historians seeking an authentic record of the Warsaw Ghetto. However, the later discovery of a long-missing reel complicated earlier readings of the footage. A Film Unfinished presents the raw footage in its entirety, carefully noting fictionalized sequences (including a staged dinner party) falsely showing "the paradise" enjoyed by Jewish urbanites, and probes deep into the making of a now-infamous Nazi propaganda film.
Though we are prohibited from showing you some of the amazingly disturbing footage of the Jews enjoying "the good life" in the ghetto (you have to go see the film for that), we were able to get our hands on a few clips, which we've interspersed with the interview below. For more info on the film, including dates/cities, please check out aFilmUnfinished.com.
We have a nice treat today! An interview with Lev Yilmaz, the man behind Tales of Mere Existence. If you don't know his brilliant cartoons, check out the vids below. Then read the interview for a chance to win an autographed copy his book "Sunny Side Down" (plus a DVD!), which you can also buy over on his site.
DI: Songwriters are often asked, which comes first, the music or the lyrics. How about you? Do you first come up with the story and then draw it, or does a doodle sometimes give you the idea for a story?
LY: A little of both. The series began like this: I had just moved to San Francisco, and I knew almost no one there. If you move from the East coast to the West, it takes a little time to adjust to how people relate to each other differently. I usually say, it takes forever to make a friend in Boston, but you will have that friend for a long time. You can meet your soul mate every fifteen minutes in San Francisco, but you'll never see them again. Anyway, I was keeping these journals with me at all times, drawing and writing, just to keep myself company, just to have something to do. After a while, I started keeping track of what I was doing by drawing very crude, very mundane cartoons. I woke up one day with a hangover, and did a video version of one of the entries in my journal. It was basically verbatim, exactly what I had written & drawn. That one was called "Party", about the party I had been to the night before. Now that I think of it, I should try doing it that way again.
