Three Blind Mice (2x7)

Data de estreia: Jan 01, 1945

Three Blind Mice (1945, 4:41), featuring George Dunning amongst its artists, isn’t a clear retelling of the famous verse but more a springboard to showing what happens when safety regulations are not observed when carrying out machine and manual labor. Shot using stop-motion animated cut-outs, the short retains the rhyming convention of the original, but it drags on for too long, becoming quickly repetitive and not helped by a visual look that doesn’t alternate from its monochrome staging at any time throughout.
