Featured review
I love animation and I love Disney Silly Symphonies. This is one of my personal favourites. The animation with its fluid background art and lively colouring is wonderful, and the music with the never-annoying repeat of London Bridge is Falling Down is delightful too. The narration is beautifully delivered and appropriately sombre in places, while The Truth about Mother Goose is written with detail and care and the story merging two Mother Goose rhymes Little Jack Horner and Mary Mary Quite Contrary is whimsical and entertaining. The voice work is faultless, not a weak link in sight. In conclusion, a truly great cartoon. 10/10 Bethany Cox
