520    Calvin and Hobbes dominated the Sunday comics in thousands
       of newspapers for over 10 years, having a profound effect 
       on millions of readers across the globe.  When the strip's
       creator, Bill Watterson, retired the strip on New Year's 
       Eve in 1995, devoted readers everywhere felt the void left
       by the departure of Calvin, Hobbes, and Watterson's other 
       cast of characters, and many fans would never find a 
       satisfactory replacement. It has now been more than a 
       decade since the end of the Calvin and Hobbes era.  Bill 
       Watterson has kept an extremely low profile during this 
       time, living a very private life outside of Cleveland, 
       Ohio.  Despite his quiet lifestyle, Mr. Watterson is 
       remembered and appreciated daily by fans who still enjoy 
       his amazing collection of work. Mr. Watterson has inspired
       and influenced millions of people through Calvin and 
       Hobbes.  Newspaper readership and book sales can be 
       tracked and recorded, but the human impact he has had and 
       the value of his art are perhaps impossible to measure. 
       This film is not a quest to find Bill Watterson, or to 
       invade his privacy.  It is an exploration to discover why 
       his 'simple' comic strip made such an impact on so many 
       readers in the 80s and 90s, and why it still means so much
       to us today.  "Offers not only an in-depth look at the 
       comic strip's unique influence but also a concise snapshot
       of the dwindling state of newspapers and their "funny 
       pages." - Gary Goldstein, Los Angeles Times  "A pleasant 
       reminder that if you haven't taken those Calvin and Hobbes
       anthologies off the shelf in a while, maybe it's time to 
       go exploring again." - Ian Buckwalter, NPR  "If you're a 
       fan of Calvin and Hobbes, director Joel Allen Schroeder's 
       documentary Dear Mr. Watterson is more of less pure joy."
