He had a girlfriend before Ortesia, which was also a rabbit. Which makes sense, seeing how every other disney couple is pretty much marries the same species (with the exception of Clarabelle, but she never had anyone officially)
@@sonicelchorizoconuntoquede4871 the girlfriend before ortensia was Fanny, And if your talking about Clarabelle, her two maim suitors were either Goofy, or an old character Horace Horsecollar
I think its kinda neat that Oswald and Ortensia got married because rabbits and cats often can actually crossbreed. However the spawn of the cat and rabbit often either don't live very long or are unable to breed
I thought this short was considered as "lost". I'm really glad this guy uploaded this video from a 16mm copy of the short in an old movie theater and or film archive.
Fun fact: in the 1930s when universal owned Oswald and redesigned him, they released the older cartoons like this one with sound! But the wasn’t very synced
Fun cartoon. I love the way a car shows up and and just makes off with Fanny, the mechanical cow was ok, but the best part of this toon was the villains in the car shooting at Oswald. I wonder what kind of animal they were supposed to be, whatever it was it was pretty evil looking. The cow sort of reminds me of a wooden horse in some early cartoon that a hero like Mickey or Oswald rode on in a cartoon clone of Mickey's Galloping Gaucho.
There is a modern Oswald short on disney pluss If you look online he appeard on a billboard and adds of clothing He makes a cameo on the short “Once upon a studio” There is a Oswald cameo and references on the newer Mickey mouse shorts (well not the newer but those that started that new Mickey and friends redesing )
Theres a actual sound print for this cartoon fun fact, and Ocean Hop has one too. After disney left they probably put sound in some of the cartoons in the 30s. Don't see why disney used those sound prints though.
Well, those sound prints were from Universal. Walt Lantz asked Disney if they could rerelease the silent shorts. Disney said, "Could care less. I got my miracle child" and a few select cartoons got a soundtrack.
Oswald did speak for the first time in a Walter Lantz made Oswald short called the Hash Shop from 1930, the first words he ever said are "Okay, how's yours"
4:22 Hmmmm. This looks like the movie in a movie from "Mickey's Gala Premiere". Supposedly in 1938 the BBC Television transmitter was turned off partway through the cartoon due to the 'international situation'. When service resumed, so did the cartoon.
