Summary:
Frazetta's trademark images--fierce warriors, voluptuous princesses, fantastical creatures--have inspired hundreds of imitators and won him renown, one of the most recognizable artists of the twentieth century. From comics to cover art, this documentary explores the life and works of this virtuoso artist and illustrator.
Notes from a previous torrent of "Painting With Fire":
Illustrator and comic artist Frank Frazetta is profiled in the documentary film FRAZETTA: PAINTING WITH FIRE. The film explores Frazetta's life beginning with his boyhood in Brooklyn, where he was born in 1928. Frazetta became an artist for numerous comic books in the 1950s, working for powerhouse publisher DC and assisting Al Capp on the famous "L'il Abner" comic strip.
[simply put, We have Frazetta to thank for Stupefyin' Jones my note]
In the 1960s Frazetta began the work he is most famous for--paperback and magazine illustration, becoming well-known for his paintings of pulp characters like Conan the Barbarian and Vampirella. The bulk of Frazetta's work is in the Conan vein: brawny, enraged warriors and swooning, scantily clad women facing assorted beasties and monsters. FRAZETTA: PAINTING WITH FIRE contrasts the images in Frazetta's work with the artist's own troublesome health, including a stroke so terrible that he was forced to learn to draw and paint with his left hand. In covering Frazetta's life, director Lance Laspina utilizes his training as a visual effects artist, and brings Frazetta's paintings to life in more ways than one with some well timed CGI effects.
My notes
Since I posted "Pulp Fiction Art: Cheap Thrills and Painted Nightmares" I was again thinking about Frazetta. Also thinking about Margaret Brundage, Roweena and Mort Kunsler.
Years ago I saw "Painting With Fire" on the file shares. I had my library get the disk. Here is a new MKV recode of Frazetta: Painting With Fire. More material is in the Collectors Edition which should be still available as a two disk set and possibly as a re-release.
My thanks to the maintainer of a previous torrent. That one does not contain the extras, subtitles or commentary track
