Seen it?1955 | 7 min | Animation, Comedy, Western
Why it’s a Monday Morning Maybe
With a box office flop and almost no lasting buzz, this one could be a tough watch. Keep your phone handy.
Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.Is it for you?
- Who'll love it
- Right up the alley of anyone who's ever talked to their pet and people who need a good giggle. An animal steals a fair few scenes. Sits nicely alongside The Ballad of Buster Scruggs.
- The mood
- Light and funny, feel-good.
- The pace
- Paced for all ages, at 7 min. An easy one to fit in on a school night.
- What might put you off
- No age rating on record, so check it first for young kids.
- Made in 1955: an older pace and style.
- Skip it if you can't get past animation (your loss).
Two outlaws are trying to steal a shipment of gold being guarded by Deputy Droopy, and have to keep quiet to avoid alerting the sheriff.
