A relic of a (thankfully) lost age, 8 August 2001
Author: TC Raymond from England

If ever there was a lost genre, it's cartoon porn. In the seventies, studios cranked this stuff out like it was going out of fashion, and ONCE UPON A GIRL is a fairly typical example. Hal Smith plays Old Mother Goose, who, in live action segments, is in court defending 'her' fairy stories against charges of depravity and corruption. The animated segments kick in, and we see raunchy, bar-room joker versions of some traditional tales. I won't spoil things for you in case you've managed to defy all logic and are planning to watch a third-generation pirate copy of this scuzzy epic tonight, suffice to say the animation is reminiscent of Hanna-Barbera's output during their seventies decline (think Hair Bear Bunch, Hong Kong Phooey and Josie and the Pussycats), all stiff characters and wishy-washy painted backgrounds, the humour is adolescent and the novelty of seeing cartoon characters doing naughty things wears off faster than you might think. Actually, the standard of the jokes (such as it is) declines as the movie goes on, and all the sleazy goodwill generated by the first twenty minutes or so vanishes into thin air. Stick with SOUTH PARK (1999) for some seriously funny ink-and-paint naughtiness.
