Last Friday I sat down to talk with Chris Lavis and Maciek Szczerbowski, who make up
Clyde Henry Productions. They were getting ready to leave for France, where their ambitious stop-motion film
Madame Tutli-Putli was selected for the International Critics' Week at the Cannes film festival. We spoke at length about cinematic influences, our previous encounter at the beginning of production, and why comparing them to the Brothers Quay is a bad idea; you can find the
podcast here, if you don't already subscribe to the
feed. (And why not? The link's in the sidebar to the right.) Also, check out our
video podcast, where I present some excerpts from the 2001 animatic of the film. (See, if you subscribed you'd already know about that.)
If you're not currently in France, you won't have much of a chance to see
Madame Tutli-Putli in full just as yet. I'd recommend that you head over to the
official website and take a look.
