| Karli Melder and the Movie Vigilante watch a movie (drawing by Karli Melder) |
I held a contest once on a now-defunct social media site that required the entrants to write a short paragraph reviewing a movie they had watched recently. That's all.
I don't recall what movie she wrote about but after she entered, Karli Melder took it upon herself to draw this image of herself and her impression of the Movie Vigilante, complete with front butts. I don't know why Karli draws people with their butts in the front but it's whimsical and funny and those are good enough reasons for me. Notice how my arm snakes in to grab a handful of popcorn? I believe also that the way our hands are drawn is called "popcorn hands." Very appropriate, don't you think?
She didn't have to draw this. She just decided to do it completely on her own, unsolicited and it filled me with joy when I saw it. It was such a nice gesture.
Unfortunately, Karli did not win the contest but it did lead to this interview of her I did after I found out she worked at a drive-in theater. In it, I had originally linked to the drawing that was hosted on the website that no longer exists. Since that link is now broken, I wanted to post the drawing here for all to enjoy.
Thanks, Karli!
Now go watch a movie.
