Kurt Cannabis Meets Connie Cancer
Posted by admin on Monday, November 15th, 2010A comedy puppet short, “Kurt Cannabis Meets Connie Cancer”, is a special bonus on the DVD of “What if Cannabis Cured Cancer” (Len Richmond Films). Directed by master puppeteer, Steven Ritz-Barr, it’s an outrageous bit of puppet theater, imagining a comical meeting, somewhere in the liver, between the mean, bitchy, diva, “Connie Cancer” (voiced by ROSEANNE BARR), and the cool, hip, and rather wise, Kurt Cannabis (“A Clockwork Orange” star, MALCOLM MCDOWELL). Their witty banter builds into a battle of wills, as evil Connie tries to destroy all the healthy cells in her way, while mellow Kurt is equally determined to stop her in her tracks. The comedy short ends with perhaps one of the funniest death scenes in puppet history. Written by BBC filmmaker Len Richmond, with creations by the great Russian puppetmaker, Eugene Seregin.
