Well I have now reviewed all four of the season themed Silly Symphony cartoon shorts and out of them I think I liked Summer the best. This on the other hand just didn't do it for me, it has some nice touches to it but I just mainly found it disappointing, it was just very bland and mediocre to me, just another average forest critters dancing to music type romp, and I'm afraid that I found most of these critters to be annoying rather than charming. Most of them had faces like Mickey or maybe the lame Oswald Rabbit. I didn't like their designs, maybe it was the quality of the particular version of the short that I watched, but most of them looked like black blobs who's features you could barely make out except for their ugly rubber limbs. Frightfully basic stuff.. And again maybe it was just the version I saw but the sound was really scratchy and so bad that it hurt my ears, sound-wise time was not kind to thee Winter! I know that at this point in time it was the formula they were sticking with and a winning one at that, but I thought the happy dancing route seemed a bit at odds with the season of ice, they should have tried for something a little deeper, possibly even a little downbeat? What I did like the most about it was some of the smaller background details, they were surprisingly beautiful and rich for such a rough short. It was good to see that at least in that regard the animators were fast improving. I did love the icy snowstorm that blows at the beginning, that was one thing that the Disney animators never seemed to have any trouble with right from the start. A cute enough short, but no favourite of mine in this great series. And...curtains!
