- Synopsis
- Here, though, his exuberant, cartoony watercolors animate a bit of American history that he has dramatized himself -- albeit through the voice of LuLu, "short for Lucresia," whose friend Abbey has returned from a trip to the big city spouting crazy tales of a water bubbler marked "COLORED." Contemplating the "wondrous possibilities" of this, LuLu and her cousin steal a ride to the city to taste the marvel for themselves. But, of course, it's the early 1960s, it's the South, and the children's rainbow-h- ued fantasy dissolves into a black-and-white scenario that's at once sobering and scary.
