Flip Flap leaves his family at the zoo to move to the Arctic Paradise. However, when his girl friend Celia is captured by sealers, there is nothing to hold him and he returns home in this decent but unremarkable Noveltoon.
Noveltoons were Famous Studios line of non-series cartoons in the 1940s and the beginning of the 1950s, where they tried out new ideas in an effort to find repeatable successes like Popeye and Herman & Katnip. Most of them fell into patterns in which child-like heroes -- like Flip Flap -- face some issue that is solved easily in the last sequence. The gags here are standard cartoon gags in which ordinary human tropes are given a seal or Arctic interpretation: competent, but not terribly inspired. If you have a yen to see a typical entry in the series, this will do well.
