COUNTDOWN TO THE SILLY SYMPHONY COLLECTION – #14 WINTER (1930)
Winter was the last of four Silly Symphonies to be themed after a specific season. It’s an exercise in gag-driven funny animal animation. It features more bear cubs that look suspiciously like Mickey. It has familiar and popular winter music. It shows animals skating on a frozen lake, predating Bambi by a decade. But most importantly, it features the only fart joke that I can ever recall seeing in a Disney short.
Remember to visit the Disney Music Emporium for information on the Silly Symphony Collection vinyl box set!
