Not an eggcellent work at all

Yes I had to go there. "Alice's Egg Plant" is an 8.5-minute cartoon from 1925 and as always with Walt Disney's series about this young girl, the only live action character in this animated world is Alice. As the title already says, she and her pal Julius operate an egg plant here (which means a chicken farm, not a biological plant) and I felt that this little movie here had more of a story and plot than they usually do. of course, it also goes for comedy, but there is a touch of union talk and maybe even a slight ounce pf politics in here. Unfortunately, it still stays a fairly absurd watch and neither the characters nor the animation are good enough to really say this is an enjoyable little film, even if it's among the most known from the Alice series. The title character here is played by Anne Shirley and this is her only performance as Alice. She went on to become an Oscar nominee later on. But here she cannot show us her talent yet. I don't recommend the watch.
