Peter Lorre Films in Burbank on Jan. 15, 2011

Long a favorite of cartoon animators and artists, Peter Lorre will be the subject of the next meeting of the Creative League at the ASIFA-Hollywood Animation Archive.

On Saturday, Jan. 15, 2011, the Creative League will present a Lorre double-feature of Stranger on the Third Floor (1940) and M (1931).

The program begins at 7 p.m.

Attendance at Creative League meetings is by invitation only, and this event is limited to twelve people. To request a reservation to attend, contact the League at their eMail address: creativeleague@animationarchive.org.

The ASIFA-Hollywood is located at 2114 W. Burbank Blvd, in Burbank, California.

According to their website, the Creative League considers Peter Lorre “one of the greatest actors of all time”. His acting style and facial expressions are “a great model to study for animators looking to improve their acting chops.” And with Pixar and Walt Disney Studios among the ASFIA-Hollywood members and sponsors, perhaps an animated Lorre character will make an appearance in an upcoming film. . . . . . .
