Dream Girl

November 20th, 2006

Kickin’ off Cartoon Starlet Week with THE LOST DREAM, a Paramount Famous production starring Little Audrey, she of the chunky ankles and ever visible frilled panties. Many of Audrey’s efforts featured elaborate dream sequences, but this one actually has a dream sequence all about dream sequences! Sheesh!

Despite the appearance of yet another regrettable Black maid stereotype, this is a cute cartoon. Able direction by Vlad “Bill” Tytla, nice voice work by Mae Questel and a great score by Winston Sharples. No credit given for the guy who did Audrey’s hair. Maybe just as well.

The same Vlad Tytla that did the Night on Bald Mountain sequence in Fantasia directed this cartoon. I agree it’s a cute cartoon, but I would have liked to see the nightmares be a little more menacing.

 

Age old problem. ‘Bill’ Tytla the pretty good director doesn’t get much respect because he was the same guy as Vlad Tytla the pretty fabulous animator. As to the nightmare stuff, I guess we don’t usually expect anything too scary from Paramount-Famous, a studio whose vision of the living dead was Casper the Friendly Ghost.
