Prod. UM1 - Mickey's Nightmare

123456
Directed by Burt Gillett.
Released 8/13/32, this draft dated 4/20/32. Nearly four months!? Could it be because this film was the first Mickey in the United Artists series?

Animation by Norm Ferguson, Jack King, Tom Palmer, Johnny Cannon, Gilles Armand "Frenchy" de Trémaudan, Ben Sharpsteen,
Les Clark, Hardy Gramatky and Dave Hand.

Another classic with the animators unknown - until now!

  1. Another interesting point—MICKEY'S NIGHTMARE is a semi-remake of Oswald's POOR PAPA, right down to the business of the babies playing the piano.
    Ending is different, though: for Oswald it's no nightmare, but real life. Another bunch of storks arrive and he unsuccessfully tries to get rid of them.

    Thanks for the draft, Hans; this is an invaluable service!
