A Symposium on Popular Songs

1962 · 20 min Animation Comedy Music
5.2 / 10 · TMDB

Professor Ludwig von Drake plays a variety of popular music, all of which he wrote. First, ragtime: the Rutabaga Rag, with vegetables dancing in stop-motion. Next, the Charleston, with cut-out animation of a singer and dancers. Dixieland and more cut-out animation; the crooner/love ballad; 50's doo-wop; and finally, rockabilly.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take

A Symposium on Popular Songs is an acquired taste at 5.2/10. We recommend checking the trailer and synopsis before diving in.

Not every film is made for everyone. Read the synopsis, watch the trailer — you'll know right away if it's for you.

A classic from 1962. They don't make them like this anymore — which is exactly why you should watch it. Best for: genre fans and those open to something unconventional.
