Customer Reviews of Max Fleischer's Famous OUT of the Inkwell Vols. 1 & 2
A Treasure for Fans of Silent Shorts and Animation. I highly recommend this DVD set to all fans of the Fleischer studios and to fans of silent cinema. This DVD set contains Ko-Ko the Clowns earliest cartoons from a time before he was just a costar in Betty Boop's shorts. These shorts are also interesting because they are a mixture of live action and animation. The shorts have an excellent background score done by animation legend Winston Sharples. This DVD set also contains lots of info on the Fleischer Brothers and on the actual shorts themselves. The picture quality is also very good.
Max Fleischer's Landmark on DVD!
Reviewer: Jerry Beck
Excelent examples of Fleischers earliest films, with a well done background on Fleischer. The prints are superb(or at least the best we'll ever get),many are tinted. and come with the
"classic" Winston Sharples Ko-Ko music (added for TV release in the 1950s).
My only request is: more of this wonderful Fleischer collection.
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED
AN AMAZING PRODUCTION
Reviewer: bookhound99 (see more about me) from Beacon, NY USA
Ray Pointer has outdone himself! " Max Fleischer's Famous Out of the InkWell" Vols. 1 and 2 is a very inspired and wonderfully undertaken venture. Mr. Pointer has not only presented us with the animation stylings of Max Fleischer and the directorial talents of his brother Dave Fleischer, but has included some biographical information in the form of an introduction/narration about the history of the Fleischer brothers. Mr. Pointer has also included insights from Berny Wolf (an animator working for the Fleischers, and Max's nephew Bernard Fleischer.
As far as the visual and audio quality of this production, to quote Jerry Beck (Animation Authority/Historian) "The print quality is the best...and the transfers are excellent." Ray Pointer also makes the very best use of sound effects and music (by Winston Sharples, Fleischer cartoon music composer) which, to quote animation instructor Brian LeMay, "...didn't intrude on the original animation..." and gives each cartoon a wonderfully authentic period feel.
The fact that the original "Out of the InkWell" releases on VHS (which were the inspiration for the DVD for Volumes 1 and 2...go to [a website]...won the "GOLD AWARD in the Entertainment Category for the Houston International Film and Video Festival in 2001 and 2003" is only the icing on the cake.
Thank you Ray, for preserving this piece of history and for giving us an insight into the mind and talents of Max Fleischer!"
