How sad is this?
Better Late Then Never
If the ambition is to provide two hours of instantly forgettable, popcorn-munching escapism, it succeeds.
The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;
This short, nominated for an Academy Award, is a very cute (almost too cute in spots), very well animated cartoon. Given its title, an excellent use of music is to be expected and that's precisely what you have-the animation and score going hand in glove smoothly, like a single unit, a strength of the Lantz studio in particular, although they were hardly alone. All of the major studios did the same, but Lantz and Warner Brothers were probably the best at matching music and animation rhythms. Well worth watching. Recommended.
