The Ray Harryhausen Collection

I'm not the kind of fan who feels that going out of my way (or even crossing a street) to meet someone famous is in any way a productive use of my time. I'd much rather sit at home and admire the person's work, because any true artist worth their salt would agree that it's the work that's important, not the individual. Even so, there are a small number of people who, if I was to cross paths with, I would take the opportunity to thank for choosing to share their art with the world. A simple but sincere "What you did mattered," is worth infinitely more than a thousand sycophantic or fawning fans screaming.
Ray Harryhausen is one such person. What he did mattered. His family and friends will have known his intimate side. The rest of us can know his artistic side, the side that he shared time and again through the films he worked on.
