Little Red Riding Hood(1922)

Well, it's pretty much the fable as we know it-except for the guns. And the cars. And the airplane/car chase.And that stunt with the...skyhook? Okay, maybe a few liberties were taken...

Several years before Walt Disney became the owner of the Walt Disney empire, he was a cartoonist for Laugh-O-Gram studios, cranking out some well-composited, simple line-art comedy features. This one definitely qualifies for one of his best efforts, chock-full of well-timed gags and action, and of course paving the way for later animators such as Chuck Jones and Walter Lantz and their later high-quality works. With only six minutes of film and a bouncy third-party jazz soundtrack, I was definitely left wanting more...Silent, Soundtrack.
