We’ll Go Out on a Limb for You!
on May 5, 1945, by the Russians
and eventually made his way to the
United States.
Schatz says The Number on Great-
Grandpa’s Arm is aimed at children
about age 9 and up. Even though
it avoids Holocaust horror scenes,
younger children might be upset to
learn that the Nazis wanted to kill
every Jew and to hear Jack say he
never saw his parents again after he
was picked up by the Nazis.
Many of the scenes, making up
eight minutes of the film, start with
black-and-white archival photos
that morph into colorful animations.
Artist Jeff Sher did the animation
using a Rotoscope, a tool created
more than 100 years ago by anima-
tion pioneer Max Fleischer, creator
of the Betty Boop cartoons.
“We were looking for a way to
unify the story and provide anima-
tion to the stock footage,” said Sher,
whose work is in the permanent col-
lections of the Museum of Modern
Art, Hirschhorn Museum, Pompidou
Centre and other sites. It’s a labor-
intensive process; Sher needed more
than a year to complete the paintings.
The producers of the film felt the
pressure of time, wanting to preserve
stories for younger generations while
knowing that the ranks of survivors
are quickly dwindling.
Young Elliott understood this as
well. As he says of Jack’s story, “You
need to know it to understand and
stop it from happening in future gen-
erations.” •
