As a Disney oddity, they don't get much odder than Three Caballeros. Donald Duck receives a birthday package from South America, and the film proceeds to unravel like some peyote-induced hallucination. It starts out reminiscent of other Disney films, where shorts are cobbled together, such as "Make Mine Music" or "Fun and Fancy Free". The film has vignettes such as "The Cold-blooded Penguin" and "The Flying Guachito". After them it careens into part-travelogue, part-stream-of-consciousness animation. Not helping out much are Donald's "friends": Joe Carioca (a parrot) and Panchito (a rooster). They spend most of the rest of the film watching Donald chase skirt. That's right, Donald Duck is a wolf in this movie, and he chases every live-action seƱorita who bustles across the screen. Although some will say otherwise, Caballeros is for die-hard Disney, Donald or psychedelia fans only. --Keith Simanton, Amazon.com
This legendary animated feature is surely beyond criticism by now and, furthermore, it's unlikely that we'll see such forceful narrative in a kids' cartoon ever again. Disney's treatment of Collodi's story of the little wooden puppet who wants nothing more than to be a real boy is always guaranteed to have audiences entranced. While some of the movie's success is derived from its liberal use of the kind of imagery no children's film-maker would even attempt to get past the storyboard stage today--a mysterious island where children smoke cigars, get drunk and turn into donkeys, a monstrous, malicious sea-creature which is devoid of any trace of cuddliness and a pair of villains who routinely abduct children, to give just a few examples--the characters are depicted with the finest attention to detail, most of the songs have become classics in their own right ("When You Wish Upon a Star" being only one of many) and the graceful, stylised animation positively glows with fine detail. Essential family viewing. --Roger Thomas

His greatest pleasure comes from thwarting Tom’s every attempt to catch him. Tom. An ordinary grey-and-white house cat of no great intelligence Tom is driven by three goals: to eat to sleep and to catch the mouse Jerry and eat him. Unfortunately his plans are constantly stymied by the shrewd little rodent.
It was 1934 when the irascible Donald Duck came to life in a bit part in 'The Wise Little Hen' and proceeded to steal the show. From that point on nobody could hold him back and the much loved cranky character went on to be the most prolific of Walt's 'Fabulous Five'. Now for the first time you can enjoy Donald in all of his solo starring shorts from 'Donald And Pluto' in 1936 to 'Chef Donald' in 1941. This volume also includes a loving tribute to the man who achieved immortality b
