Charles Hopkins of the UCLA Film Archives will present a program of highlights from the decade when animation first gained widespread recognition as an art form in its own right. The emphasis will be on cartoons produced in the United States, although two short advertising films produced in Europe by puppet animator George Pal will also be shown. In addition, the program includes 35mm prints of Max and Dave Fleischer's Dizzy Red Riding Hood (a delightfully bawdy Betty Boop cartoon from 1931) and Stoopnocracy (a 1933 Screen Song with radio humorists Colonel Stoopnagle and Budd); Ub Iwerks' Flip the Frog in Movie Mad (1931) and a rare original print of one of Iwerks' Comicolor shorts, Jack Frost (1934); Walter Lantz's Confidence (1933), in which Oswald the Rabbit joins with a cartoon Franklin D. Roosevelt to promote the New Deal; Porky's Super Service (1937), a Porky Pig cartoon directed by Iwerks and animated by Chuck Jones and Bob Clampett; original nitrate prints of three Fleischer Color Classics, Dancing on the Moon (1935), Somewhere in Dreamland (1936), and All's Fair at the Fair (1938); and other rarities from the UCLA Film Archive's collection.
