Read The Getaway first. Couldn't believe how much a story could be so much like the movie and so different at the same time.
Added a sketch of Bertrand Tavernier, the director of a Jim Thompson story called Pop 1280. French name Coup de Torchon ( Clean Slate). The DVD has a very cool, long form interview with him. Lots of discussion of Thompson's writing.

Thanks Kali. I tried to post on your blog on your most recent cartoon. But I'm not sure it went through. Blogspot all the sudden doesn't like my cookie settings.
