A nice, relatively brief interview with Chris Ware that is worth watching for two reasons—
(1) It spotlights Chris Ware, perhaps the single most important graphic novelist of, well…I think that’s it: the single most important graphic novelist (his epic masterwork, Jimmy Corrigan, the Smartest Kid on Earth, being the standard case for legitimizing comics as high art/literature).
And (2) it places him in an interview with an awkwardly bubbly and funnily tenacious interviewer; that in addition to the kitschy background music and editing.
Ware’s responses—both verbal and nonverbal—are priceless. Enjoyable on multiple levels.
