Almost all of the Silly Symphonies featured characters who were unique to the series. Even Donald Duck, one of the “Fab Five”, had his debut in a Silly Symphony. One exception is Pluto, Mickey Mouse’s beloved dog pal. In this charming short directed by David Hand, Pluto finds himself in charge of a group of newly hatched chicks. Leigh Harline’s musical score adds a layer of whimsy to this exceptional Silly Symphony.
