(1958, approx. 15 min.)
A candy-colored story about a delinquent young bear with lips who dreams of running away from his human (puppet) school, where he befriends and gets drunk with a rabbit and a fox. |
|
The scenes of the chaos he creates in the classroom, with the participa tion of a proto-typical Beavis & Buttheads, are quite surreal, and at one point the animal trio perform music for the famous frog puppets, who are doing calisthenics by their pond. |
