... View MoreSour Puss wants to get some sleep. Gandy Goose turns the radio on low and drifts off to a radio show telling the tale of the Princess and the Frog in this average Terrytoon.This is an underwritten episode in the usually excellent series of cartoons starring Gandy and Sourpuss. Several of them had the two drifting off to sleep. Sometimes they had adventures together and sometimes singly. In this one it's Gandy who does the adventuring, but it's an underwritten one, with not much in the way of gags.The visuals are up to standard, though. This period offered the most elaborately realized offerings from Paul Terry's studio, and they tended towards the Candybox style of background work. Following the War, budgets would shrink quickly, if not in nominal dollars; inflation would take the budgets, and the box office would peak in 1946.But not yet. Enjoy the pretty pictures.
