A Sleepless Night (1940)
*** (out of 4)
This puppet animated film from Charley Bowers is pretty darn good. It basically involves a dog being unable to sleep and a family a mice living inside the wall having the same issue. I've read different things about this short including some say that it is missing footage and others saying that it's complete but wasn't totally finished. Whatever the case is the movie is actually quite delightful and it's certainly worth watching. I really loved the look of the dog and thought it was rather hypnotic watching him do his thing. The mice are given rather silly things to do but at the same time I just thought the animation was so good and there were so many great details that I couldn't help but enjoy what I was watching.
