Pluto’s Playmate
0 views
Pluto is playing with a ball on the beach. The ball goes into the water and starts moving in strange ways, because a sea lion is playing with it. Pluto does not want to share the ball, and eventually tries to bury it, but the sea lion is too clever. Pluto goes after the sea lion, but has to tangle with a persistent octopus. The sea lion saves Pluto, and resuscitates him, so Pluto agrees to play.
★★★☆☆
Curator’s rating
Pluto and a sea lion who wants to share his ball. The sea lion is a lovely piece of animation — genuinely playful rather than merely mischievous — and the short belongs to the small group of Pluto films where the ending is friendship rather than victory.
