Earl Hurd

Live-action adaptation of the 1937 Disney animated film 'Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs'.

Pluto is tied up in the backyard and has been ordered by the maid to stay outside while she prepares a roast. Of course, once Pluto smells the scent of the roast, he makes a beeline for the kitchen. Unfortuantely, staying undiscovered proves difficult for Pluto once he gets inside particularly after he inhales a bucket of soapy water and starts sneezing. Bubbles fill the kitchen and cups are broken at which point the maid comes downstairs. Luckily, Pluto returns to his doghouse leaving the impression that he never left. The maid just shrugs and says, "I could swear it was that dog."

美しく心優しい白雪姫。その美しさを妬む継母の女王から命を脅かされ、森の奥深くに逃れた白雪姫は、7人のこびとたち―おとぼけ、ねぼすけ、くしゃみ、てれすけ、ごきげん、先生、おこりんぼ―と出会い、一緒に暮らし始める。 ある日、老婆に姿を変えた女王が訪ねて来て、毒リンゴを口にしてしまった白雪姫。横たわる白雪姫の傍らで悲しむこびとたちの元に王子様が現れて…。

Pluto accidentally hatches a bunch of chickens and looks after them until the hen returns.

Minnie's old friend, Mortimer Mouse, drops in on Mickey and Minnie's picnic. His practical jokes and coming on to Minnie soon have Mickey stewing, and their car isn't happy either. When Mortimer gets a nearby bull enraged and takes off, the car comes to the rescue after Mickey gets tangled up in a red blanket.

Little Elmer Elephant has a crush on Tillie Tiger and his affection is reciprocated. Trouble is, the pint-sized pachyderm is beset by bullies who ridicule his trunk and make his life miserable. Then a conflagration breaks out at Tillie's tree house.

Minnie rides into town and takes a large sack of money out of the bank. Pegleg Pete gathers his gang to take it from her, and they chase her out of town. Lonesome cowboy Mickey, who met Minnie earlier and was told she could take care of herself, sees this chase unfolding from his high perch, and rides down to save the day.

While young Earl Hurd Jr. is writing the scenario for the latest Bobby Bumps cartoon, the chicken is busy laying eggs. When he finally gets around to directing the cartoon, however, Bobby Bumps balks at the cartoon smoke, which looks more like springs to him.

Animation featuring Bobby Bumps. A "Bray" Studios Production. Bobby tries to sneak his dog into the theatre. He gets past the woman at the kiosk but the commissionaire spots the dog in a mirror. The pooch licks tears from his master's eyes as they sit on the pavement outside. An aristocratic lady arrives at the theatre in a chauffeur driven car and the dog gets underneath the train of her dress and into the auditorium. Bobby follows after him. They watch a film where a hypnotist commands his victim to "Bark like a dog". Bobby tries to hypnotise his pet and tells him to "Bark like a dog". He does so and they are thrown out of the theatre. They are kicked so hard that they fly through the window of a tram. Bobby then hypnotises the conductor into believing that they had paid their fare and indeed that the conductor owes them change. The conductor gives them some money. Bobby has a good laugh about their scams.

The dialog was presented into two different kinds of formats: in a comic-strip "balloons" and in "title cards." I liked the former more, because it's almost like looking at a comic strip literally come to life. The story is a bunch of antics that go on in a diner/restaurant (they used to call a "beanery") and in the kitchen as Bobby and his dog help out. Some of the gags are excellent. The dog is a riot.

A black maid is sitting in the kitchen doing some chore or another (difficult to see what.) Bobby Bumps has hidden inside a box and is trying to get something from the larder without the maid seeing him. But she spots him and lashes him with a whip. He runs off and the maid laughs....
