		Eccles is often paired with Bluebottle as a friend, and sometimes is an underling or lackey for Neddie.

		The voice and character were inspired by an actual person, one Ruxton Hayward, a scout-master in full uniform with bushy beard, who tried to hire Peter Sellers to appear in a stage show.

	Stanley Dudek's analysis of Skellig
		My interpretation of the characters and dilemmas in Skellig are most closely aligned with the theories of Maslow, Erikson, and Piaget.
		For Skellig, it is food of the gods compared to the bluebottle flies and spiders that were his mainstay previously.
		When questioned about the quasi-angelic character of Skellig, Almond acknowledges that he grew up in an extended Catholic family where angels were spoken of quite openly.

	Headless Hollow
		The characters are real, the script doesn’t hold your hand and treat you like an idiot, and there’s an excellent balance of human drama and gung-ho action.
		Far from squeaky clean ‘models in space’, the characters are fallible (an alcoholic second-in-command) and interesting (the newly appointed president dealing with responsibility and newly-diagnosed cancer), and scenes don’t always play out the way you expect.
		Payne is making great films because these people and characters are so recognisable, and like life, the situations they get into and the choices they make aren’t neat and packaged and end happily every after.

		The young king for a while carried on the government after his father's policy, and with the same ministerial officers; but he soon began to show signs of independence of character, the first manifestation of which was an attempt to curtail the power of the Jesuits, especially in the matter of public instruction.
		This was, of course, enough to rouse the enmity of the whole Society of Jesus against him, and its members have been busy ever since in thwarting all his plans and doing their utmost to render him unpopular with his subjects.

		With their expressive shapes and soap opera character behaviour they make themselves so tempting to draw.
		They're so amusing, so full of life, that sometimes I think they have a richer, more incident-packed life than I do; just by going about their lives and being whatever it is they are: dotty pheasant, busy blue tit or streetwise sparrow.
		And it's not just the birds; the bluebottle that lands on the table also has a character all it's own - yes, really, it does, if you stop and look at it: it's not an identikit field guide specimen; it seems to have a life and character all it's own.

	James Sallis Web Pages - Richard Martin
		In effect, there is a kind of synthesis both of hardboiled literary traditions and post-sixties US history, particularly from an African-American perspective (albeit filtered through a white writer's point of view), in the Griffin novels.
		While the idea of history is especially in evidence in the 1960s-set Black Hornet and Bluebottle, the notion of 'crime fiction summarized' percolates through the opening chapters of The Long-Legged Fly.
		Himes's life story itself also serves as something of a model for Lew Griffin: both have a criminal past, both have an enduring fascination for white women, both are Francophiles, and both find fulfilment of sorts in their literary endeavours.
