"Paul Bunyan" is a Disney cartoon from 1958, so this one will have its 60th anniversary already next year. At 17 minutes, it is considerably longer than most cartoon short films from that or maybe I should say bigger because the title character is truly a tree of a man. Eventually, he is perhaps the most known lumberjack mankind has ever seen or maybe just the United States have ever seen as there is a lot of patriotism, maybe even heroism, attached to this little movie. It was nominated for an Oscar too, but lost to Warner Bros' Bugs Bunny entry that year. Back to this one here, if you take a look at the bodies of work from the director, the writer and some of the voice cast members, you will find that they worked on some real classic films. Paul Bunyan may not be among the latter, but their expertise helped in turning this into a pretty good film as well. The introduction to the character was nice for example when we see him as a baby, but the contest man vs. machine at the end was well done too. A happy ending, but they also weren't scared of including disappointments. At under 20 minutes, it is fine that all the other human characters in here are really irrelevant. It's all about Paul, who by the way was voiced in a recent animated movie by John Goodman. The size sure fits. I recommend "Paul Bunyan", a fairly good watch and finally also a thumbs-up for the "bulldog" pet who was quite a scene stealer in this one.
