This is a super-strange and highly creative short from Disney--and it looks nothing like a Disney production. That's because it is NOT hand-drawn animation but stop-motion! Well, evidently, the Oscar people liked it, as they nominated this film for Best Animated Short.
The story is a pretty traditional retelling of the story of Noah's Ark. However, it includes peppy music (Dixieland, jazz and rock 'n roll) and VERY weird animals. That's because there is no attempt to make them look realistic! The animals consist of various objects, such as funnels, bottles, eggs, pipe cleaners, corks, pencils and other strange materials. It's weird but also pretty cool how they were able to use the materials the way they did. You just have to see it to believe it.
