The Citizen Kane of Animation!
6 February 2007
Warning: Spoilers
***SPOILER WARNING!!!*** "One Froggy Evening" was a cartoon made in 1955 by Chuck Jones of the Warner Bros. fame. It's about a poor man who's working in a construction lot one day and finds a box with a singing frog inside. The man decides to exploit the frog's talents for his own financial gain, but ends in failure because the frog only sings for its discoverer.

This short is very unique because the only dialogue coming out of this film is the frog's beautiful singing voice. It's very beautifully animated with a good story developed as well. Apparently, it's called the "Citizen Kane of Animated shorts" by Steven Spielberg because it was so funny and vivid, it clearly would deserve the title! Well worth tracking down. It's on the Looney Tunes Golden Collection, Volume 2 DVD, so grab it and watch this cartoon! 5/5 stars.
