Great advice, funny anecdotes, and generally useful tips full this book. It answered questions I didn't even knowto ask. I'll give it as a graduation present for everyone from now on.
  
Very amusing collection of advice dating back a long way, some are banal in the extreme but many are absolute howlers and will have you thinking "what were <i>they</i> thinking?

"Notes collected by Henri's students over the course of his years as a teacher. Still some of the best advice available to art students. Henri is never condescending, always speaks to students as peers."

Humor, violence, story are all an unpleasantly malicious affair. (0 more)
Unpleasant
I hated this movie from start to finish. I don't mind ulraviolent satire, but this movie was unpleasantly malicious throughout.

My advice, go watch Robocop (The original)
