Mellow drama

Warning: Spoilers
"Mickey's Mellerdrammer" is a black-and-white sound short film from the early days of the world's most famous mouse. It runs for 8 minutes and features the talents of some of the finest cartoon filmmakers and voice actors from back in the day when this was made over 80 years ago. Early on we see some audience shots and afterward a brief look behind the stage, but for the rest of this film we watch basically a theater play including many Disney characters, some of them still appear in comic books today. The antagonist is not Pete this time, because it is just an antagonist in the play actually played by one of Mickey's pals. However, the audience is not so tolerant and eggs keep flying from all directions. The audience reactions were maybe also the funniest thing about this little movie, even if there were more entertaining moments. All in all, a decent early Disney film. Recommended.
