Director, Cinematographer, Editor: Lewis Klahr

Pony Glass is the story of comic book character Jimmy Olsen's secret life. In this 13-minute cutout animation, Superman's pal embarks on his most adult adventure ever as he navigates the treacherous shoals of early '60s romance trying to resolve a sexual identity crisis of epic proportions. A three act melodrama, each act has its own song, filmed in Klahr's signature collage style. "Klahr's collage animation makes comic book hero Jimmy Olsen the locus of desperate anxieties about sexuality and race. The film is so charged with fear and desire that a simple iris-down to black made the hair stand up on the back of my neck." (Village Voice)
