This cartoon is included in the "Flying Down To Rio" DVD. It is a nice little cartoon with good music and gags. A bonus is spotting the celebrity caricatures. I rated this an 8 out of 10. It is also a little naughty with one of the girls in silhouette and you can see she is quite anatomically correct. :-) All of the celebrities utter a quote that is more or less instantly identifiable with them. It would be great if more of the Harmon - Ising cartoons were available as an individual DVD. They contained some memorable early animation characters as well as some very snappy musical arrangements. This cartoon is definitely worth watching. I highly recommend it.
