Alice the Piper
The rats are out of control in Hamlin; they've taken over the kitchen, but when they take over the King's bedroom, that's the last straw. He posts a $5 reward, which the rats change to $5,000. Alice and Julius accept the challenge; they play a tune and the rats gather around, but they won't fall for the old "follow me into the river" trick. Fortunately, a very powerful vacuum cleaner is nearby, and Alice and Julius suck all the rats into it. The king gives them their reward: $5.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take
The film constructs a classic Pied Piper narrative, but uses it for an absurd and witty parody of authority's greed and the resourcefulness of common folk. The 1924 animation relies on expressive pantomime and visual gags that remain effective.
What lingers after viewing is a smile from the naive audacity of silent-era animation, where even the most powerful vacuum cleaner cannot clean out a king's pockets. — MovieFinder Editorial
