Famous quotes containing the words animated, short, film and/or series:
“Uncle Ben’s brass bullet-mould
And powder horn, and Major Bogan’s face
Above the fire, in the half-light, plainly said
There’s naught to kill but the animated dead;”

“You’re too short for that gesture. Besides, it went out with Mrs. Fiske.”
