The analysis or discussion about “perspective” and Murder Psalm may have been in one of those video blog discussionsby Phil Solomon, perhaps trying to tie it to Stan’s early reference to overriding “Renaissance Perspective”(ground into the glass of photographic lenses, ha ha) , something which incidentally painters had already done centuries earlier I might mention.

I recall reading some analysis of this film that made a point about the “perspective” involved, cannot now remember the point. I imagine that Stan had a whole reel of this cartoon but only used this one shot, leading me to believe maybe he used other footage from that cartoon elsewhere, but maybe not. Murder Psalm is contained in the DVD Anthologies and is online if you want to take a look. Meanwhile I will try to find that analysis that does mention something about the use of the cartoon.
