Review of Broken Toys

Broken Toys (1935)
8/10
Sorry, wrong number

I wrote another review that was censored. I wonder if this cartoon is shown at colleges as a subject to critique? Obvious stereotypes of Asians and popular Hollywood Blac actors of the time. But if the viewer looks closer, whether they are all white and other, they are a team. And they are together not as a race but as a species, dolls (humans). W. C. Makes approaches on a black woman in this and is rebuffed (indicating equality). W. C. Also hangs out out with another non-white doll They are all a team. The doll cartoon characters here seem very happy hanging out with the other race doll types, lol. I watched this to see Bud .Duncan (thinking it was a live film, not a cartoon) but he's not portrayed art wise here, only as a doll (the police doll), his star in the silent films had already fallen, sad. Great cartoon, a Disney with Mickey Mouse on the title but no mouse in it. Also United Artists. Its great to watch I love the teamwork of all the races and sexes of the characters! Every character is very respectful (unless you count WC slapping the black woman, but he apologized).
