		Johnston has inspired and helped train a new generation of animators to continue the Disney tradition and serves as a senior ambassador for the art form he helped pioneer and popularize.

	MichaelBarrier.com -- Commentary: Frank and Ollie
		I've written elsewhere about how Thomas and Johnston's first book, Disney Animation: The Illusion of Life, propagated the strange notion that the dull, literal animation in such latterday Disney features as The Jungle Book was somehow the pinnacle of the art, and Frank and Ollie offers more of the same.
		Johnston's animation could seem a little obvious and unshaded by comparison—I'm thinking of his Mister Smee in the same film—but that may well have been more a matter of casting than of talent.
		Frank and Ollie is, in short, yet another of the many Disney-sanctioned products—like Thomas and Johnston's own Disney Animation: The Illusion of Life—that smudge the distinction between the ordinary and the extraordinary, to the disadvantage of the latter.

	DVD Review of Frank and Ollie: Special Edition - DVDtoons! (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
		Frank Thomas and Ollie Johnson are the last two of an original breed of craftsmen who dedicated themselves to pushing the animation envelope, stretching the boundaries of what could be achieved in the medium, and providing immeasurable entertainment to audiences of all ages and nations.
		Arguably the Thomas and Johnston of their generation, it’s great to be able to hear Keane and Deja share their thoughts on the animation of yesteryear and how it compares with their work today.
		Frank And Ollie probably fit somewhere in the middle, after Ub had laid the basics for personality animation and had moved on to the technical aspects, leaving the then nine young men to develop that approach and get on with the day-to-day business of creating hand drawn magic.

	An Interview with Ted Thomas, Director of 1995's Frank and Ollie
		Ollie, just in the way he approached his scenes when he was animating, he had to feel that it was the right thing.
		Ollie Johnston (seated) and Frank Thomas during the glory days of Disney animation.
		In the making of the film, I realized how really symbiotic their relationship is and the extent to which my father, as logical as he is, is inclined to explore ideas endlessly, to try every last variation that you could think of on staging or coming up with an action.

	Friendship Right Out of a Disney Film
		Directed by Frank's son, Theodore Thomas, ``Frank & Ollie'' is an unabashed labor of love -- a valentine to a father on one hand, and a revealing look at friendship and creativity on the other.
		Frank and Ollie met at Stanford University in 1931, signed on at Disney in 1934 and 1935, respectively, got married and raised families at the same time, built houses next door to each other and collaborated on four books on Disney animation after they jointly retired in 1978.
		The longevity of Frank and Ollie's partnership, one animator says, is an ``enigma'' given that most artists chafe at the rigors of collaboration.

		As Ollie lets Frank in one fall morning and they take seats around the kitchen table, their mutual affection and respect are immediately apparent.
		Though they sometimes finish each other's sentences, one is always careful to let the other have his say before turning the conversation in another direction, and their easy camaraderie fills the room with a warm glow.
		"Frank and Ollie" contains no mention of The Strike of '41, in which Johnston, Thomas and the rest of what were to become Disney's famed "Nine Old Men" remained loyal to the virulently anti-union Walt Disney while a group of story men and animators led by Art Babbitt fought to join the Cartoonists Guild.
