In, Your Face

(Bill Plympton roasted by John Dilworth)

Shot live at Caroline's Comedy Club in NYC on November 9, 2004, this is one in a series of artist performances at the roast of animation icon Bill Plympton, hosted by the queen of mean, comedian Lisa Lampanelli. In this segment animator John Dilworth (Courage the Cowardly Dog, Dirty Birdy, The Mousachist) briliantly and hilariously decodes the hidden meanings of one of Bill's most famous films, the Academy Award nominated animated short "Your Face". Note: This is the PG rated version of the film
