And when he came to the place where the wild things are,they roared their terrible roars and gnashed their terrible teeth and rolled their terrible eyes and showed their terrible claws.
Maurice Sendak

我租了他的where the wild things are来看,里面是一堆短小可爱的卡通片,按他最早
的插图书改编的。他的人物总带着50年代纽约广告画儿的味道,眼色烟暗,形状饱满偏胖
,影片里的配音配唱也是老式的嗓音,带一点点茵氲之气。
读者和评论给他的赞誉之高,可从此窥见一斑:
“Perhaps no one has done as much to show the power of the written word on
children, not to mention on their parents, as Maurice Sendak.”—President
Clinton, January 9, 1997.
