"I read this story last week in Reader's Digest."
5 August 2016
Tex Avery brilliantly tackles both Little Red Riding Hood and Goldilocks & the Three Bears in this fun Merrie Melodies short. We all know the two stories so I'll spare you the rundown but I will say it's cute how Avery combines the two. His Goldilocks is especially awesome. As humorous as this is, enough good things can't be said about the animation. Beautiful colors and exquisite backgrounds. Anyone who thinks these old cartoons weren't works of art is high on paint fumes. The music is also lovely. From the clever opening with mock movie title card to that hilariously risqué ending, it's really a fun and creative cartoon with wonderful artwork. Tex was one of the greats and this short is a solid example of his talent.
