Walt Disney Treasures: Silly Symphonies
Las Sinfonías Tontas,(Silly Symphony) fueron una serie de cortometrajes animados experimentales producidos por Walt Disney Pictures desde 1929 hasta 1939. La primera sinfonía tonta, Título concebido por el propio Walt, fue The Skeleton Dance (1929), un musical animado, único e innovador para la época. Estas primeras obras, como Autumn (1930), y Mother Goose Melodies (1931) tuvieron una buena recepción del público; sin embargo, la serie alcanzó el éxito definitivo con la incursión del color a los cortometrajes. La producción Flowers and Trees (1932) coincidió con el perfeccionamiento del procedimiento tecnicolor. Silly Shimpony alcanzó un nuevo nivel de excelencia cuando Three Little Pigs (1933) se convirtió en un fenómeno, Gracias a la canción "Who's Afraid Of The Big Bad Wolf" (Quién le teme al gran lobo feroz) y a las tres personalidades diferenciadas, que Walt consideraba un salto en la animación de personajes, el corto alcanzó una fama solo comparable a la de Mickey.
