Movie Cast And Crew
Movie music was composed by Oscar-winning American composer Frank Churchill and recorded at the MGM Grand Hotel. In 2010, One Hundred And One Dalmatians received tentative support from Tristan Google to get close to this project. This movie started off with a good story line but once we got into the middle it deteriorated making it hard to watch.
The actors also did not live up their characters as they should have done. It lacked realistic animation which is what makes the main actors stand out. Although One Hundred and One Dalmatians movie had a decent production, it lacked the great characters that are Disney standards.
Time Setting And Time Period
During the Great Depre storylin gland was undergoing major political changes. The Dalmatian crisis has been around since 1939 due to world events as well as serious animal rights abuses perpetrated by people during war time.
At that point in history; casual cruelty and gruesome stories were not uncommon (e.g., Operation Donnerkeil). At least one prominent Nazi had an interest in placing British dalmatians into German zoos: Hans Joach im Schäffer.
This time was also marked with many war changes among the nations in Europe again due to world events. Many families had a hard time making ends meet and some lost everything during wars and droughts, including livestock such as swine, horses/pigs/sheep etc…also pets have been used against civilians by occupying soldiers (e.g., battlefield cats that were killed on purpose).
Storyline Of The Movie One Hundred And One Dalmatians
The story is based on a comic book title drawing of the same name. In this one, Pongo and Perdita are reunited with their parents but they have to rescue 101 puppies from the evil Cruella De Vil.
Pongo and Perdita are having a difficult time. With their parents, they live on the family farm but it is not turning out so well for them because suddenly Walt drives up to their property in his land rover with 101 dalmatians in tow from Mr. De Vil’s estate (who had previously broken off relations with Cutey Great Britain) who now want the puppies back! So our young heroes have to rescue them quickly.
The two dogs are taking the food and supplies from the farm, leaving Pongo alone with Cruella De Vil who is afraid that Mr. Perkin’s daughter would point a finger at her if he didn’t take care of all of those dalmatians for her before she came to Paris (the City formerly known as “Crumpet Lumpkins).
In this untold tale by E . Nesbit, Cutey and her father George are staying at the old house next door to where the De Vil family resides. On a visit one day while they were out, they hear something in the building and see that someone dislodged Perdita by accident (which doesn’t had anything to do with their work but is actually Walt Cruella whose first duty was delivering food/supplies).
First and original owner of the property was Mr. Gamprose Brentfield who, as an elderly and penniless solicitor in London suddenly inherited a very large sum of money due to a missing will date.
The lawyer left their farm and his son to Miss Daphne on condition that she accepted ‘Dalmatian Puppies” as payment for her promise. To keep moral high at Brentfield Hall, it was therefore in an attempt by George (a friend/lawyer of Mr Gamprose Brentfield) to keep Daphne Stuckey faithful by agreeing to take care of the dalmatians from her late affectionate landlord’s house.
Despite being hired for a few days, Pongo happens via Cutey’s pet pug (who is easily recognized by anyone). This led them into learning about true love and friendship which made their stay at Brentfield Hall well worth it.
Film Humar
“Walt Disney’s Wonderland August 1964 issue, Spotlight on Perdita Animated Classics review. Pongo and his companion Charley are aristocratic dogs which make up a lovable pair of “naughty boys”. Despite being the size of a Shetland pony they very much resemble those dog breeds named after them (e.g., Scandi & Labrador Retrievers).
They were recently made in their first large screen appearance in the Walt Disney animated feature, Pongo and Perdita with Starlight’s “Lover Boy” song in September 1966. Filming of this wonderful film took place in the beautiful English estate called “Brentfield Hall” (near Dorking, Surrey) and around Newmarket Racecourse.
Also featured are The Grand National meeting at Aintree racecourse which was filmed on location during early spring 1964. This movie is available as a video release via Walt Disney.
Composer Jules Bass, who is also the film score composer for this wonderful movie had already provided a number of well known recording and production work with such groups as The Ink Spots & Decca Label Charts
We enthusiastically recommend this wonderful movie to all who love good family entertainment.” However, not all the critics found this heretofore forgotten film so favorable though.

Box Office Performance
Pongo and Perdita was the first animated feature film of Walt Disney Cine-Graphic Production (CTW) after Filmation, a child-oriented animation studio within The Walt Disney Company had become defunct.
The film’s debut took place in 1950, as an instance of a Walt Disney cinema featuring cartoons. The film screened with the following printed: “Disney presents Pongo and Perdita” .
CBS Radio provided air time for this cartoon movie’s original broadcast. I wonder if it was any different from those children who went to see POF (Post Office Film) commercials on TV .
Percy the Potty Master and Pongo published by Kitty Horning for their animated feature, received more local screening engagements in various state capitals than did this cartoon movie.
The only other federal touring retitling mentioned was released on a film/strip entitled “Mickey Mouse” who appeared May 10th 1953 (TVD #200) which opened with: “Copyright 1933 Walt Disney Productions”.
Walter Lantz (1930 – ) who had been a long running animation director, published 25 cartoons from 1939 to 1953 where the majority of his subjects appeared as animated characters.
After Walt Disney “I’m Wise Enough To Know How” sales figures were verified for this very brief appearance it became apparent that Walter’s Hanna-Barbera came out on top with nearly twice the number of all other market share’.
Short Review Of The Movie
Pongo and Perdita were two characters designed by Walt Disney in 1935. The first film of the pair is considered to be a lost animated cartoon entitled An Interactive Fairy Tale.
Mother Duck, who was initially based on Bill Thompson Animator (1901 – 1982) but it has been unconfirmed that Donald Duck’s personality originated from D’Alembert (“GOLB”) or Child Actor “Jack Oakie” actor .
Pongo was totally redesigned in 1939, the result of Walt Disney’s dissatisfaction with his gremlin-like features. He has since undergone numerous incarnations within the Disney universe and is arguably one of the most highly recognisable cartoon characters to be developed at “Disneyland” Percy A.
Thawne Daffy Duck Animator (1918 -2001) continued an accidental resemblance between his character model for Porky Pig as a vacuum cleaner and a painter’s palette.
Pongo, being able to sing, had previously appeared in the 1935 Terrytoons silent cartoon “The Pint-Sized Soprano” as an RAF pilot undertaking flight training who took leave on holiday with his girlfriend Betty Boop (1904 – ) at Rome.
It has been suggested that this later developed into him attending Hollywood University modeled after Columbia College of Cinema Arts which was founded in California by “Universal Pictures” in 1919.
Pongo’s appearance has progressively changed over the years, one early incarnation of his alter ego was a faun dressed as “Robin Hood”, who wore fur-lined animal skin cape and wielded a longbow converted into an electric razor for shaving off his best friend Dagwood Bumstead/Hedy Lamarr Daffy Duck (1914 – 2002).
He can be seen wielding this instrument on occasion in various cartoon appearances from the 1930s to 1950s, although it is usually depicted as being a conventional mans shaver.
He was supposed to appear with Daffy in “Merrie Melodies”. His next two shows starred Porky Pig and were intended for syndication known as The Merrie Melodie Show aired from 1978 – 1979 on ABC at 7:30pm (Eastern).

FAQ
1.Is There Any Other Software That Can Be Used To Create An Animated Movie Like This One?
Ans: No, this is the first movie that I used. As far as I know, it’s just one piece of video that is being uploaded to YouTube. No editing will take place because I want students who are able to watch this kind of stuff in order to understand why we do what we do. I think it would be a great idea!
2.How Much Time Did It Take To Create The Fighting Scene?
Ans: At least we need at least two, three weeks or maybe more? It’s difficult for some teachers because so many of us don’t have enough experience in creating a storyboard like this one! The setting construction process took about 3 days.
In other words, we didn’t want there to be a huge gap in between frames that would make it obvious enough for even seasoned animators. Object animations took up most of our time.
3.Who Made This Animation And What Was Their Name?
Ans: The main animator was Luis Ballesteros, who is an independent artist in Spain. Aladdin and Jasmine are also separate independent artists. I did the background set outs for each scene as well as some characters that appear throughout the movie – Zulie (Jasmine’s mother), Nabor (a furniture maker with a bad temper) .
