Tom Thumb (1936)
** 1/2 (out of 4)
Charming animated short from Ub Iwerks deals with Tom Thumb, the small child who gets himself into one bad thing after another. This animated short certainly isn't a masterpiece but if you're a fan of Iwerks then you'll probably want to check it out since it does feature some very good animation. The highlight of the film is a scene where Tom Thumb gets swallowed by a goat and must try and find his way out. This is followed up by another good sequence where he gets into a funny fight with a fishing worm before being eaten, once again, by some fish. There's certainly nothing ground-breaking here but it's a pleasant short.
