Walt Disney was barely 21 years old and still working out of Kansas City when he and his earliest cohorts in animation produced this cartoon. PUSS IN BOOTS is a slangy update of the old fairy tale, complete with jazzy topical references to flappers, radio, and Rudolph Valentino. (Rudy is parodied in a brief burlesque of his bullfighting saga BLOOD AND SAND, a movie-within-the-movie entitled “Throwing the Bull.”) The characters in this silent film converse in dialog balloons, as they would in a comic strip; similarly, when they’re startled, their hats dance in the air, or little lines fly out of their heads– it’s like the Sunday funnies come to life.
The story is simple. A boy who is a commoner is in love with a Princess, but of course her father the King objects. However, the boy’s cat has a plan to make him a hero, therefore an acceptable suitor. Lots of cute gags along the way boost the entertainment value of this very early Disney effort beyond what a plot synopsis might suggest.
Character movement is a bit jerky at times, but the backgrounds are surprisingly elaborate, rather more detailed than those found in Disney’s later ‘Alice in Cartoonland’ series or in the early Mickey Mouse cartoons. It’s also impressive that these young filmmakers would take on the challenge of animating such a large crowd of spectators packing into the arena for the climactic bullfight. Even this early, Disney wasn’t one to play it safe or cut corners. PUSS IN BOOTS is charming and funny, an inauspicious debut to a career whose impact can still be felt.

Just discovered this early Walt Disney pre-Mickey Mouse Laugh-O-Grams cartoon on Cartoon Brew as linked from Matinée At The Bijou which linked it to YouTube. It’s a modern day-in-the-’20s retelling with the cars and of-the-period clothing plus a matinée showing of the latest Rudolf Vaselino flick. With the King not allowing the commoner young man or his female cat to see his daughter or the cat chauffeur James, young Puss tries to get her master to get her boots to impress James but to no avail until after the movie when she gets him to buy them as exchange for telling him what to do to impress the King. Since the picture was about bullfighting, that’s what the young man tries to do…
While a little primitive with comic strip balloons to tell us what the characters are saying since this is silent, even this early in his career Disney provides quite a few visual gags that keep this entertaining to the present day. My favorite comes when the inter-title says “Time flies by” while clocks with wings float on screen! Also, when the King gets shocked, his coat flies off! Well worth seeing for vintage cartoon fans, particularly those of Walt Disney.
