CHIP AN’ DALE (Released to Theaters in the USA 1947)

 

Ben Meyers’ Rating: 3.9|5.0 Starsììì  Chip an’  Dale— cute and better than Clock Watcher for a Donald Duck short film— has Chip and Dale interacting with Donald Duck. When compared to modern toons for children like Dora the Explorer one can see that these toons are from an era gone by as many children’s watches run along the lines of educating and expanding borders now. But, these short films definitely still have their place with their simplistic view of life and handling problems and challenges. This toon still has watchability and is worth watching. The artwork in this film has become much more sophisticated and colorful than the toons of the early 1900s.  Film Poster Courtesy of Wikipedia  Storyline  While camping, Donald Duck cuts down a tree that is Chip and Dale’s home. The story is on as the chipmunks try to get their home back.  Additional Thanks  Thank you to Director Jack Hannah for directing effort. Thank you to Producer Walt Disney for making the film possible. Cast includes Clarence Nash, Jimmy MacDonald, and Dessie Flynn.                  Buy a ticket? Yes? No? Maybe?  Yes.
