From out there on the moon, international politics look so petty. You want to grab a politician by the scruff of the neck and drag him a quarter of a million miles out and say, ‘Look at that, you son of a bitch’.

Had some small film roles but most famously known for her role as Harriet Olsen in "Little House on the Prairie". As a kid this and the Waltons was a major part of my Sunday, after mass. My mam was a fan.

Pablo Ferro died over the weekend; best known as an animator and graphic designer, he also made small films and movie trailers.
Probably his most famous movie works are the quick-edit trailer and hand-lettered title sequence for Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb, where he came up with the idea to use the B-52 ... refuelling.
We did a test and it worked! Stanley filled the screen with my lettering. It was perfect! You could see the plane and you could see the lettering at the same time.
The challenge was that I had to do everything, all the layout, and then when I had just done the last layout, he asked me: “Where’s your name?” I didn’t know I was supposed to put my name! The only open space was between two parts so I did it there, very little. You have to look for it.
That style was often imitated and Pablo was asked to work on titles for The Addams Family, Stop Making Sense, Men In Black and more.
Pablo was also responsible for the trailer for A Clockwork Orange, the split-screen montages in The Thomas Crown Affair, the "porno" scenes in Midnight Cowboy, and was even supervising editor on Michael Jackson's Beat It video.
