Abbott & Costello star in this version of Jack and the Beanstalk. After a modern prologue in monochrome Bud and Lou adapt their usual sharpie-and-patsy roles to colorful fairytale settings and Buddy Baer is an excellent foil as the fearsome giant. (Listen for cartoon-voice Mel Blanc playing several roles in the I Fear Nothing song.) Makes a fabulous children's matinee.

The classic fairytale gets the Abbott and Costello treatment as the comedy duo take on a babysitting job. Jack (Abbott) starts reading the famous legend to his charge, Donald, but stumbles over the big words. When Donald takes over, Jack falls asleep, and is transported to a magical world, in which he is the story's vine-clambering protagonist.
