Rene Laloux

Ren Laloux (July 13, 1929 - March 13, 2004 in Paris) was a French animator. He was born in Paris in 1929 and went to art school to study painting. After some time working in advertising, he got a job in a psychiatric institution where he began experimenting in animation with the interns. It is at the psychiatric institution that he made 1960's "Monkey's Teeth" ("Les Dents du Singe"), in colaboration with Paul Grimault's studio, and using a script written by the Cour Cheverny's interns. Another important collaborator of his was Roland Topor with whom Laloux made "Dead Time" ("Les Temps Morts", 1964), "The Snails" ("Les Escargots", 1965) and his most famous work, the feature length "Fantastic Planet" ("La Plante Sauvage", 1973).

Quotes

"That which suggests is superior to that which shows. Movies today show more and more. It's paranoid dictator cinema. What we need is schizophrenic cinema."
