Talking to a friend recently,I was shocked to discover,that despite them being a fan of films by the Disney studio,he had never actually seen any of the short movies titles starring a Disney character called Goofy.With there only being 3 weeks to go before my friends Birthday,I decided to introduce him to the world of Goofy,by picking up the epic-sounding complete DVD,which features every single one of Goofy's (solo) short films.
The plot:
Going in his rowing boat with a grasshopper best friend Wilbur,Goofy gets excitingly gets prepared for him and Wilbur to grab their catch of the day.Initially having great success with their fishing,Goffy and Wilbur soon discover that the fish are ready to fight back,and make Goofy and Wilbur the catch of the day.
View on the film:
Despite this being the character's first ever solo short feature,voice actor George Johnson gives a tremendously sharp performance as Goofy,with Johnson's perfect delivery making the character appear well established right from the start.
Being given not a single line of dialogue in Otto Englander's charming screenplay,director Dick Huemer closely works with composer Paul J. Smith to make Wilbur's personality hop across the screen,thanks to Huemer's lush animation allowing for a strong bond to be felt between Goofy and Wilbur,which is emphasised by Smith's atmospheric score,that help to make Goofy's first short feature appearance,a far from "goofy" debut.
