Different angles on autobiography. I love the ironic tone of this. Apparently it won an Oscar in 1974.
I think the greatest inspiration for me in this area that I have seen in the last year or two it is Persepolis, which was developed from a graphic novel. Its sparing use of colour, simple style and direct clear but subtle story are a good example of a story and medium in direct support of one another. This is a video on the making of Persepolis which I found interesting. All traditional animation.
