Craftsman: ‘What you get is somethin continued from page A-29 Boyd laughed and agreed when he was asked whether he was still basically just making his own toys. While Boyd appreciates old- er models of vehicles, his work in the automotive industry kept him current enough with contemporary styles that he never developed a preference for any one era. “Every decade of cars holds something of interest to me, especially as the styles have evolved,” Boyd said. “I’m fasci- nated by how those fins grew out of the late 1950s, for exam- ple, but I don’t have a particu- lar favorite. Even when I look at cars today, I can appreciate the directions they’re moving in, and some of the old stuff that seems to be coming back.” ‘well the other artists’s works . in the Shelton Civil Center’s Boyd’s stained-glass Model T Ford was selected after he responded to a call for submis- sions that was posted in the Shelton-Mason County Jour- nal, and in spite of his self-ef- facing nature, he clearly takes pride in how his hard work on this piece yielded something distinctive. . “This was a very tedious piece to do in stained glass,” Boyd said. “You have to work with copper foil as your frame— work, then apply solder very neatly. If you’re not careful, the heat can crack the glass. Still, what you get is something I’ve never seen before or since.” You can find photos of Boyd’s stained-glass car, as Rotating Art Gallery, on Facebook at “cityofsheltonwa.” Thursday, Dec. 24, 2020 Shelton-Mason County Journal — Page A-31 g I’ve never seen...’ a. - “This was a very tedious piece to do in stained glass,” Boyd said. , “You have to work with copper foil as your framework, then apply solder very neatly.

What'both films also share is how much they were made just under the wire, for skeptical movie studios that didn’t entirely understand what sorts of stories they had on their hands, by crews of talented people who were on the launching pad of broader star- dom. Will Ferrell had never solo-head- lined a feature film before being cast in “Elf,” and even after its release, it would be another five years before its director, Jon Favreau, would hit the big time with 2008’s “Iron Man,” which in turn gave birth to the Mar- vel Cinematic Universe, and paved the way for Favreau to create “The Mandalorian” (aka The Baby Yoda Show) for Disney+. And while “Elf” shot to the top of the box office in short order, “Tim Burton’s The Nightmare Before ’ Christmas” required a slow‘burn post-theatrical simmer of VHS and DVD rentals for audiences to get hip I, .

If you’ve enjoyed any of Netflix’s pop culture documentaries to date, you should find plenty to appreciate in “The Holiday Movies That Made Us,” which employs the same level of cleverly edited juxtaposition of vari— ous talking heads’ unrehearsed reac- tions to each recalling their shared story in very different ways. This is particularly prevalent in the contrasting accounts of Elfman and Thompson, who were not only “N NW. in a relationship at the time “The Nightmare Before Christmas” was being made, but they were doing most of their work out of the same home, which doesn’t mean they agree on how Elfman initially felt about Thompson’s screenplay; Given how many “happy accidents” the creators of these films agree made them possible, one could almost call it a Christmas miracle that we got them at all, and if nothing else, that alone makes “The Holiday Films That Made Us” worth a watch. 182 S.E.
