Friday A/V Club: Freehand Fireworks for Independence Day

Happy Fourth of July:

That’s Stars and Stripes, a cartoon hand-drawn onto
film in 1940 by the talented Scottish-Canadian animator Norman
McLaren. McLaren lived in the U.S. when he made it, but it
is ultimately the view of a man passing through. (He was here
for only about two years.) Still, I’d say he captured the spirit of
the holiday fairly well.
