"Alpine Antics" is a 1936 cartoon that runs for 7 minutes and was produced by Schlesinger Studios. Jack King is the director and you may have seen some of his later Disney cartoons. Bletcher and Hansen do the voice acting and the former is especially prolific in that area. IThis may sound weird, but this cartoons looks somewhat older to me than 80 years old and not only because of the black-and-white. Warner Bros. and Disney certainly were on a different level at that time shortly before World War II. However, "Alpine Antics" is not all bad. It's a solid film, some decent snow sequences and also an antagonist to make the whole thing a bit more dramatic. Of course, our hero wins the race in the end and everybody's celebrating, well apart from the hero himself who also lands in the icy water. Don't worry though, these cartoon characters won't drown. All in all, not recommended.
