With having been caught by surprise at Disney's second ever Goofy solo short title being the unofficial intro to the "How To" series of movies,I decided to take a look at Goofy's third solo title,to find out which direction the character would be taken in.
The plot:
With a train soon arriving,Goofy begins moving a number of items for the train to pick up.Actidentally dropping a box that belongs to a magician,Goofy quickly discovers that the contents of the box are stranger than anything he has seen before.
View on the film:
Leaving behind any signs of a plot within the first 30 seconds,director Jack Kinney takes the film into a brilliant Fantasy direction,with the contents of the magician's suitcase allowing the animation to become wild and vivid,as the film goes from Goofy's head turning into a gold fish bowl,to a weird,disappearing bull.
Emphasising the Fantasy elements of the title,Leigh Harline's sharp score helps to create an enchanting atmosphere,as Goofy begins to discover that there may be no limit to how filled the magician's box can be.
