Review of Toot Whistle Plunk and Boom

"Toot Whistle Plunk and Boom" is an American cartoon from 1953, so this one has its 65th anniversary this year and at slightly over 10 minutes, it is a bit longer than most cartoons from that time. Maybe this runtime is one of the components that had this film make enough of a difference to win an Academy Award. It certainly cannot be the film itself can it? Here and there it is informative admittedly, but the animation did very little for me and the story/plot, if there even is such a thing in here, could not impress me either. It feels very rushed and not like a worthy tribute to the wonderful world of music (instruments). I am surprised this one is fairly well known still, especially as it doesn't have any of the famous Disney duck/mouse characters in it. Maybe the Oscar helped. In any case I am not sure who I'd recommend this one to, certainly not music classes or their teachers, cartoon lovers or music lovers won't really like what they see in here either. Maybe it is for film historian curious about a fairly unusual Disney work. As for me, it came indeed pretty short. My suggestion is to watch something else instead. Not recommended.
