Married a Strange Person from the Internet Movie Database
Animator Bill Plympton tells the tale of a man who, dirung the opening credits, is imbued with a godlike power, which allows him to turn his thoughts into reality. Other people discover this, and try to get him to do their dirty work. Somewhat graphic in nature.
I'll start right off, and say that I like Bill Plympton's work. You may have seen some of it on MTV, and right now, I believe that there are some TV commercials for GEICO Insurance that he's done. To some extent, I do like this feature length effort, mainly because the person that came up with some of things that happen in the film are truly the sign of a mind that's been, shall we say, enhanced through the use of recreational pharmaceuticals. Unfortunately, I've found that Bill's work is best suited for shorter efforts. The second half of this film devolves into one long chase scene, that'd be done in minutes in other movies. If this film had been more along the same construct of Plympton's earlier work The Tune, which was a series of compartmentalized sketches, I'd have liked it more.
