Dumb Bell of the Yukon
0 views
A snowy scene; Daisy would like a fur coat, so Donald filches a baby bear from its sleeping mother. But the mother awakens and tracks Donald (and her baby) down. Donald uses his own fur coat to disguise himself as a bear cub. The real cub returns, and Donald looks like he might be in trouble, but a jar of honey turns him into the bear’s best friend instead.
★★★☆☆
Curator’s rating
Donald steals a bear cub to make Daisy a fur coat, and is pursued by the mother — a premise that puts him firmly in the wrong and then punishes him for the whole reel. The cub is one of the studio's better one-off designs, drawn with the roundness Disney reserved for characters it wanted you to protect.
