Hello, dear comrades!
Any movies lovers around there?
Yesterday, reading that Bark's story in which Donald enchants a giant
serpent by playing his flute (I don't know the exact English title), I
remembered Gene Kelly's "Invitation to the Dance" (1956) in which there is
an animation short where a little sailor boy does exactly the same:
enchanting a big serpent by playing Rimsky-Korsakov's "Sherezade" on his
flute. The fact that made me "connect" them is that the serpent starts to
dance at the rithm of the music very comically.
Unfortunately I can't query for that story in the DCML right now. Do any of
you know when it was published?
Any other suggestions?
Thanx,
