A comic strip as harmless as Archie is easy to mock, even if its middle tone humor, between the absurd and the commonplace, was, to many, a bridge between the puerile and the adult. It’s harder to understand why it was such a huge hit in the US. Gerald Peary is a film critic, a documentarian,...

In this charming and fanciful animated tale from South Korean director Chang Hyung-yun, a broken-hearted musician, Kyung-Chun, has been turned into a milk cow. That by itself would be bad enough: He’s also forced to outrun the nefarious Mr. Oh, who’s determined to steal and sell his live...
