I noticed in the previous review by boblipton (and he always seems to write excellent reviews) that ne noticed that this short was only 13 minutes long even though IMDB says it's 21 minutes. He assumes it was edited down, though it also is possible IMDB simply is wrong about the running time.
As for the story, I had no idea what to expect. After all, I've seen about two dozen of Marjorie Bebee's shorts and they are NOT consistent. Some are terrible, some are very good and some are in the middle. I'd place this one towards the terrible, though it's watchable and not offensive. The only problem is that until the end of the film, there are no laughs.
