CGiii Comment

The debut feature from UK artist-filmmaker Richard Squires, DOOZY is a creative documentary that employs 'Clovis', (voiced by Kids in the Hall/Superstore comedian MARK McKINNEY), an animated antihero, as a means to explore the particular “voice” casting of cartoon villains in the late 1960s. Through the lens of one of Hollywood’s hidden queer histories, DOOZY contemplates the psycho-social relationship between villainy and hysterical male laughter; the use of voice as a signifier of ‘otherness’ and the frequently uneasy symbiosis of character and actor. Mixing original animation, reenactments, biographical detail, expert testimonials, this is quite simply, a "doozy" of a film experience.
