Goofy demonstrates the history of water transport, from the first prehistoric use of floating logs to the modern battleship.
★★★★☆
Curator’s rating
A How To film that turns into a whistle-stop history of seafaring, from a prehistoric log to a modern battleship. The historical-survey structure let the studio pack in far more gags than a straight instructional parody, and the running joke about how little progress humanity has actually made is drier than Disney usually allowed itself.
The film ends on a naval battle played for comedy, a reflection of its 1944 release.
