🎬 MovieFinder's Take
This 1924 silent animation constructs the classic fable through expressive character movement and minimal intertitles, relying on the visual contrast between frantic, erratic energy and steady, deliberate progress.
What lingers after the viewing is the timeless charm of its simple, hand-drawn morality tale about consistency trumping arrogance. — MovieFinder Editorial
Director: Sanae Yamamoto
Best Watched
Best enjoyed with a soft glow and a score of period-appropriate music.
