Crazy Over Daisy Audience Reviews

Cebalord Very best movie i ever watch
CrawlerChunky In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.
Voxitype Good films always raise compelling questions, whether the format is fiction or documentary fact.
Staci Frederick Blistering performances.
JohnHowardReid CAST: "Donald Duck" (voiced by Clarence Nash), "Chip Chipmunk", "Dale Chipmunk", "Daisy Duck", "Goofy", "Mickey Mouse", "Minnie Mouse".Director: JACK HANNAH. Story: Roy Williams, Milt Banta. Animation: Volus Jones, Judge Whitaker, Bill Justice, Bob Carlson. Music: Oliver Wallace. Song, "Crazy Over Daisy Mae" (chorus). Color by Technicolor. RCA Sound System. Producer: Walt Disney.Copyright 18 March 1949 by Walt Disney Productions. A Walt Disney "Donald Duck" cartoon, released through RKO Radio Pictures. 1 reel.COMMENT: Delightfully set in period, this is certainly an amusing variant on the duck-chipmunk encounters. By Disney standards, the pace is remarkably fast, and there are even some bright visual gags. Although he is needlessly allowed one touch of gratuitous cruelty, Donald emerges with a fair degree of audience sympathy. It's hard not to relate to a character who tries to outrun a cannonball on a penny farthing bike!
Horst in Translation (filmreviews@web.de) If you take a look at the people who made this 6.5-minute cartoon "Crazy Over Daisy", you will find many names that were enjoying prolific and successful careers long before and after this movie. Lets just mention the name of Donald Duck voice actor Clarence Nash here and if you know a bit about cartoons and the Golden Age of Animation, then I'm sure you know what I mean. This little movie here had its 65th anniversary already, so it is really very old. And while I like many Disney works, I must say that this one here has not aged too well. Donald is on his bike paying Daisy a visit when he is made fun of by Chip and Dale. Not willing to take the mocking, he catches them (yep he does it this time) and gets them inside the wheels of his bike. When he arrives at Daisy, she does not like at all what she sees and accuses Donald of violence against these little (in her eyes) harmless animals. I had some problems with this short color cartoon. First of all what is up with the ducks' hair, even if that was just a minor issue. Donald looked like Scrooge here. And also story-wise, it frequently did not make that much sense really, to a degree where this being a cartoon is no longer explanation enough. Plus, are there any likable characters in here at all? Donsld may come the closest. Overall, I would say the wit, creativity and entertainment factor are all not on a level here where I would recommend checking it out. The main theme was okay, but that isn't enough. This was way below Disney's best, even if we are only looking at short cartoons. Thumbs down.
TheLittleSongbird This is yet another Donald Duck/Chip 'n' Dale cartoon that I love. Not my favourite by all means, but one that amuses me every time I see it. Crazy Over Donald I remember for chiefly its wonderful music and irresistibly catchy title song. But that's not the only outstanding asset. The animation is typically beautiful, with the colour palette especially sumptuous. The story is crisply paced, sometimes cute and always fun and engaging, and the gags especially in the middle of the cartoon are very funny. Chip 'n' Dale may have a sweet and harmless look to them, but some of their actions show that they can be anything but. Donald takes the laughs well, he is funny and cantankerous and looks very dapper here, but I couldn't help feeling sorry for him at the end. Daisy is beautiful but one not to mess with. Overall, for the music and title song, Crazy Over Daisy is great. 10/10 Bethany Cox
Ron Oliver A Walt Disney DONALD DUCK Cartoon.Donald is certainly CRAZY OVER DAISY, but Chip 'n' Dale may drive him loony if they don't stop pestering him.The opening sequence of this film, with Donald pedaling about town on his ordinary while whistling the catchy title tune, has an amiable Gay Nineties ambiance (look fast for cameos from Goofy as an iceman and Mickey & Minnie in an ancient jalopy). Once the little rodents arrive on the scene, however, it becomes just another Chipmunk cartoon. Clarence "Ducky" Nash provides Donald with his unique voice.Walt Disney (1901-1966) was always intrigued by drawings. As a lad in Marceline, Missouri, he sketched farm animals on scraps of paper; later, as an ambulance driver in France during the First World War, he drew figures on the sides of his vehicle. Back in Kansas City, along with artist Ub Iwerks, Walt developed a primitive animation studio that provided animated commercials and tiny cartoons for the local movie theaters. Always the innovator, his ALICE IN CARTOONLAND series broke ground in placing a live figure in a cartoon universe. Business reversals sent Disney & Iwerks to Hollywood in 1923, where Walt's older brother Roy became his lifelong business manager & counselor. When a mildly successful series with Oswald The Lucky Rabbit was snatched away by the distributor, the character of Mickey Mouse sprung into Walt's imagination, ensuring Disney's immortality. The happy arrival of sound technology made Mickey's screen debut, STEAMBOAT WILLIE (1928), a tremendous audience success with its use of synchronized music. The SILLY SYMPHONIES soon appeared, and Walt's growing crew of marvelously talented animators were quickly conquering new territory with full color, illusions of depth and radical advancements in personality development, an arena in which Walt's genius was unbeatable. Mickey's feisty, naughty behavior had captured millions of fans, but he was soon to be joined by other animated companions: temperamental Donald Duck, intellectually-challenged Goofy and energetic Pluto. All this was in preparation for Walt's grandest dream - feature length animated films. Against a blizzard of doomsayers, Walt persevered and over the next decades delighted children of all ages with the adventures of Snow White, Pinocchio, Dumbo, Bambi & Peter Pan. Walt never forgot that his fortunes were all started by a mouse, or that simplicity of message and lots of hard work always pay off.
