Featured review
Down Among the Sugar Cane was another highly entertaining Max Fleischer Screen Song cartoon featuring the inimitable Lillian Roth
Just watched this Max Fleischer Screen Song cartoon on YouTube. Like another Screen Song called Ain't She Sweet, this one has singer Lillian Roth appearing in live action. Also like that previous one, the original credits-down to the Paramount mountain logo-are intact. After someone fills some holes in the ground with sugar cubes, some candy canes grow. Plenty of funny gags abound and when Ms. Roth sings, she's appealingly perky throughout, just as she was in her previous short I watched. Once again after the Bouncing Ball segment but before the song is over, we see cartoon characters jumping on most of the rest of the lyrics. So on that note, I highly recommend Down Among the Sugar Cane.
