Based on the 1946 illustrated book by Frank Tashlin, The Bear That Wasn't deals with a hibernating bear who awakens to find himself smack dab in the middle of a sprawling industrial complex... To make matters even worse, everyone he meets keeps insisting that he's not even a bear — "just a silly man who needs a shave and wears a fur coat".
经过20+年的发展,UPA的风格成熟到收获丰厚果实的时候了。这部短片美术方面已经是无比优秀,讽刺意味也相得益彰。This was MGM's last theatrical animated short. MGM's animation focused on television after this title was released.
一点七五星 音乐好评
出乎意料的好
介于四五十年代温馨柔和动画风和七八十年代凌厉粗线条略暗黑的漫画风格之间。级别越高,办公室越奢华,秘书越多,come in 越动人,最后是美声唱法。谎言对人的洗脑,产业化对自然的破坏,物化了一切东西,都要为工厂工作和服务,但人没法抗拒自然规律的本性。还是得冬眠的。
大二那年理论课最喜欢的动画!
