Little Beau Porky (1936)
** 1/2 (out of 4)
Porky joins the foreign legion but he's upset to learn that he can't fight but instead he's given various boring chores that just don't sit too well with the pig.
There are a lot of Arab stereotypes as you might expect from a cartoon made in 1936 but this really doesn't hurt or help the film much. On the whole this here is one of the lesser Porky Pig shorts that were made up to this point because there's really not too much of a story going on and sadly there aren't too many laughs either. The highlight of the film is a scene later in the picture involving a horse but I won't give too much away to prevent the gag from being ruined. As you'd expect there's some nice animation and it moves at a nice pace but there's still not too much here.
