Max Ernst's Kindness Week

Scott McCloud listed Max Ernst's work as part of the comics tradition, so I was delighted to find this RealVideo version of Kindness Week that does the trick. To view the full film (it's short--well under 20 minutes) you'll need a high-speed internet connection, RealPlayer installed, and a pair of speakers (Ernst himself narrates); if you don't have a high-speed connection, you will be able to download some short clips.

And best of all, the price is right: totally free. Check it out.

PS: This same website/company has excellent videos on Ralph Steadman, Maurice Sendak, William Burroughs and Kathy Acker as well.
