Today’s Silly Symphony is Little Hiawatha. Directed by David Hand, who was also the supervising director for Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs and Bambi. Loosely based on the poem by Longfellow, this Silly Symphony is pure Disney. Delivering pathos and humor in a few short minutes with a beautiful score by Albert Hay Malotte, Little Hiawatha was a fan favorite. The character went on to be featured in Disney comics for many years.
