The Three Caballeros (1944)


RKO Radio Pictures
Directed by Norman Ferguson, et al
My rating: 2.5 stars out of 4
IMDb Wikipedia
(DVD, Walt Disney)

It's Donald Duck's birthday and he is given a film projector by friends in Latin America. This provides the framework for the seven segments that make up the movie. Donald and friends have various misadventures set in Central and South America. The animation and music are up to the usual Disney standards. However, Donald's antics toward the end get a little out of hand. His girl chasing would make a human blush, and for modern audiences, it's downright offensive. Still, if you can put it in a time capsule, it's harmless enough.
