The Success of Joann Sfar: From Illustrator to Director

(watercolor from the film)

Check out this wonderful in-depth piece by Mad-Dog on LePost about Joann Sfar and Gainsbourg (vie héroïque), from the perspective of a long-time Joann Sfar fan.  Mad-Dog discusses everything from Sfar's days at Pixar up to the release of his debut film. There are also some stunning examples of his illustrative work in addition to a sketch by Mathieu Sapin, which you can see below. To read Mad-Dog's full article in French cliquez ici and in English click here.
