A great article David. Very pleasing to see Hal E. Chester’s name mentioned here, with his pivotal role in this aspect of film-making being fully recognised. He would be so proud. From conversations with him I know that “Beast from 20,000 Fathoms” was a movie very close to his heart and one he enjoyed working on very much with Ray Harryhausen.

The Mr. RH story I love to pass along:

While being interviewed about ONE MILLION YEARS B.C., Mr. Harryhausen always referred to Raquel Welch as ‘Miss Welch’.

A true gentleman. When have we EVER heard Raquel Welch referred to so respectfully.

Happy Birthday, Ray! And a big Thank You to David Rosler for this inspiring tribute! The same principles of creativity that Ray applied in stop motion – the meticulous attention to detail, the subtle expression of emotion by creatures of all sorts – still apply for modern efforts, whether created by a large team like Industrial Light and Magic, or a single entrepreneur. He is an inspiration to anyone trying on his or her own to succeed in a creative field, be it writing, art, animation, music, or the culmination of all these… movie making! In an era where those who are growing up with “videos”, let us never forget Ray’s contribution to “movies”!

If this is the standard of articles about Stop-Motion-Animation I can expect from Films-In-Review, I’m putting it on my favourites list right this second, so I can check back for more in future!

Thanks for this David, and Films-in-review!
