"She was only an ice skater's daughter....." goes the song that accompanies the first minute of this old-fashioned cartoon centered around animals enjoying winter sports. After a bunch of silly but funny sights of different species skating and skiing, we come to the main characters.
A sign says, "Notice: Annual Ski-Race Today - $100,00,000 in prizes or a cool $2 in cash to the winner!"
Some little guy - the star of this cartoon - wants to win the race but a big bully comes by, demolishes his sled and walks away. The little man is undeterred. "I'll show that big stiff," he tells his girlfriend, "Kitty." and quickly makes a new pair of skis.
The rest of it - the bulk of the cartoon - is the big ski race. It reminded me of a Popeye cartoon with Bluto doing everything he can to sabotage the Sailor Man. Here, the big brute sabotages everyone in the race but you just know the little guy will find a way to beat him. Overall, it's pretty entertaining with some decent sight gags. It's not hilarious, but it will keep your interest as it maintains a high level of action.
