Cartoon Craze, Vol. 18

Description

2004 Cartoon Craze, Vol. 18. DVD. Mighty Mouse/Heckle and Jeckle: Wolf Wolf. Digiview Productions. Made in China. 10 cartoons, mostly Paul Terry. Unknown source.

This dvd should not be confused with the several Van Beuren dvd's with similar titles. It offers ten colored cartoons from the 1940's. "Wolf! Wolf!" in 1944 brings together several traditional stories and rhymes, including "Little Bo Peep." I do not find fables involved here or elsewhere in this dvd. This story involves contemporary elements significantly, particularly wartime elements like periscopes and cannon. There is also an emphasize on contemporary jazz, which can lure the lost sheep into the wolves' lair. I also enjoyed "Cheese Burglar" (1946). Though it has nothing to do with fables, it has fun with Herman the Mouse. 62 minutes.
