The Big Sleep. By Raymond Chandler.

You are a bitter LA private detective, some 100 years ago, trying to solve a case you don’t care much about, since everyone- everyone - is crooked, even the police and all the dames throwing themselves at you, and you just gotta wonder what the point of trying to be a decent human being is.

For the past couple years ive been working on a reimagining (not a Fan Edit cause the movie is perfect as is) of Who Framed Roger Rabbit. Inspired by the film noir movies that the film is so clearly an homage to, my goal is to make the movie black and white, and rotoscope the Toons to keep them in color. This a ridiculous and ambitious task that I almost gave up on many times. Thankfully i didnt cause im loving how its turning out so without further ado, now that im starting to see the light at the end of the tunnel Im super excited to share the trailer with you all.
