9/10
Serene and pensive little romantic cartoon.

Warning: Spoilers
I first watched this Donald Duck cartoon when I was a little kid, and remember it for being serene, pensive and having a hopelessly romantic feel to it. ***spoiler*** Here, Donald dates Daisy and, after a long while of courtship, he proposes to her. Before the wedding date, Donald dreams of the post-wedding blues, with Daisy's family moving with them and then Daisy herself becoming demanding toward Donald. As a result, after Donald awakens, the prospects of marriage frightens him away and he joins the French Foreign Legion (as a kid, I was wondered what the final scene was all about, with Donald doing some called of guard mounting on top of a tower)***spoiler ends***.

It's a fun cartoon with brilliant and detailed animation filled with classic style drawings, with a suave a charming voiced narrator and romantic and atmospheric settings. Great chemistry between Donald and Daisy and a funny cameo by Huey, Duey and Louie, who this time play Daisy's little brothers. It's not one of the more usual Donald Duck cartoons where you would normally see Donald running in wild misadventures, but it's a funny one to enjoy.
