Donald Duck's Dilemmas Volume 2 - Walt Disney #644 - 400' - Colour
A still excellent colour print on Fuji stock. As usual, the editors have cleverly taken not much more than three minutes out of the five titles to make a coherent story line for each, other than perhaps number 5.
1) Test Pilot Donald - 1951 - Donald flies his model aeroplane into Chip 'n Dale's tree. Dale climbs in and takes off.
2) Wet Paint - 1946 - Donald repaints his car and there is trouble with a bird who lands on it before the paint is dry.
3) Donald's Camera - 1941 - Instead of shooting wildlife with a gun Donald decides to shoot with his camera.
4) The Plastics Inventor - 1944 - Donald listens to a radio programme and learns how to make an aeroplane out of plastic.
5) The New Neighbour - 1953 - Donald moves into a new house but there's trouble with his neighbour.
The editors have done their best with number 5 but there is the awareness that there is a lot missing, perhaps not a good choice when there must have been many other Donald Duck cartoons which could have been more easily edited.

I also have a print of this film. And the print is sharp. And the color is on the good side. Its well edited. All five cartoons. A fun film! Leon Norris.
