tavm Review of Snow Foolin'

Snow Foolin' (1949)

Snow Foolin' has some amusing gags before the song "Jingle Bells" is playing

[8/10 · 4 December 2008]

Both previous commenters have gotten certain animals mixed up: It's a rabbit who declares the start of winter just before snow falls on him and a hen who tells us to follow the bouncing "hen egg". Now that I cleared that up, I thought this was a highly amusing, if not hilarious, cartoon with wonderful gags that lead to the song before the last gag afterwards. Loved the ostrich doing "eight the hard way", and the skunk saying, "Nauseating, isn't it!" (What's he responding to? Watch the cartoon!) And then there's a kangaroo and her son falling down from the sky (don't worry, the son is all right!). When "Jingle Bells" is playing with the bouncing egg jumping on the lyrics, you also see the second and third verse which I don't think I've ever heard anyone else singing whenever I listen to Christmas songs on the radio. On that note, Snow Foolin' is worth seeing for anyone who loves holiday cartoons.
