Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaMickey's rival that swoons Minnie is named Mortimer Mouse. When Walt Disney created Mickey, he originally named his brainchild Mortimer Mouse, but his wife insisted that he be named Mickey, since "Mortimer" is too fancy a name for a cartoon character.

Mickey Mouse: Yes!
[Mortimer pulls it off of Mickey's shorts and hands it to him]
Mortimer Mouse: Okay! Here it is! Do you want the other one?

Mortimer is Satan!
In this short, Mickey and Minnie are enjoying a picnic together. Suddenly, the super-annoying Mortimer arrives and ruins everything. To make it worse, he used to be Minnie's boyfriend...though why this sweet mouse would want to be around Mortimer, I have no idea. He's a total jerk and if wasn't for Mickey being such a nice character, he would have slugged Mortimer! Yes, Mortimer is that bad! Can Mickey manage to put this blowhard in his place?
Like the other Mickey cartoons of the 1930s, the animation is simply gorgeous...and far, far better than the shorts coming out of competing studios. Much of this is because Disney had bought exclusive rights to use Three-Color Technicolor and other studios at this time were either making black & white cartoons or using older and inferior color systems, such as Two-Color Technicolor and Cinecolor...processes that were not true color but painted everything in green-blue and orange-red hues. But a lot of the difference is the quality of the artwork...which is unrivaled. In addition to looking great, the story is clever and enjoyable and just show you how great these cartoons were back in the day. Well worth seeing.
