Plutopia
1 views
Mickey’s on vacation at Camp Utopia. At first Pluto thinks it really is utopia: trees everywhere and a cat to chase. But the cabin rules are strict: no dogs indoors, and dogs must be muzzled and leashed. Mickey puts Pluto out to sleep, just out of reach of his food, and the cat comes down and taunts him. Pluto falls asleep and dreams of his “Plutopia” with a subservient cat begging Pluto to bite him and catering to his every need.
★★★☆☆
Curator’s rating
Pluto dreams of a world where a cat is his willing servant, and the fantasy is staged with a genuine edge of decadence before it collapses. The wish-fulfilment-dream structure let the studio put its characters somewhere they could never go in an ordinary short, and this is one of the odder destinations.
