I saw Manny's name on the titles of the Tommy Cooper Show the other day. He was credited on at least two episodes I saw for "additional material". It prompted me to google him to see what else I could find. Manny was my tutor at a course of cartoon drawing evening classes I took as a teenager in Crouch End, way back in 1977-78. He was utterly wonderful with a mixed class of all ages, imparting his wisdom with great enthusiasm. Thanks for this film; it's made me very happy to see him again!

Sadly, Manny Curtis died in October 2007. There's a tribute to him on the downthetubes blog

Sure would like to know more about Manny's work. Hadn't seen his cartoons here in the US before. Thanks for introducing him!
