There's a certain simplicity about them, which to me is beautiful. The backgrounds don't get in the way of the foreground, the characters. Bill [Thompson] and Joe [Bevilacqua] put the emphasis on voice characterization, one reason being due to limited animation, that the character had to be strong to carry the impact of the characters.”
