The Insects' Christmas is interesting early depiction of animated holiday season, 29 August 2006
6/10
Author: tavm from Baton Rouge, La.

The Insects' Christmas is interesting in that this may be one of the earliest depictions of the winter holiday in animated form I've ever seen. Certainly of the stop-motion puppet version. The fact that Father Christmas invites both insects and frogs to the celebration shouldn't be surprising since filmmaker Ladislaw Starewicz made both The Cameraman's Revenge (1912) and The Frogs Who Wanted a King (1922). Kids may by bored by both the silence and black-and-white photography but it's at least worth a look for animation enthusiasts and Starewicz completists. This and the other shorts I mentioned is available on Milsetone Film and Video's The Cameraman's Revenge and Other Fantastic Tales DVD distributed by Image Entertainment.
