    I watched this silly cartoon as a child but it touched my heart then. Today as an old man contemplating eternity, it still touches my heart. The lesson it taught children at the height of the Great Depression was resourcefulness and ingenuity and perhaps something of recycling. These lessons are long since lost on today's young adults, youth, and children. It's lessons worthwhile remembering. I own a dvd copy of this sentimental cartoon.

      My Grandmother was in her late Teens early 20's during the Great Depression. She would tell me stories about her and her sisters growing up in an orphanage. Their mother had no choice but to place them there temporarily because she had just lost her husband and could not take care of them because she had to work overnights. She always told me be thankful for what you have because she never had anything growing up ☹️

    It's always fascinating looking at when cartoons are made and how they reflect the world in real life during that time. Take this one for example. It's in the middle of the great depression and those kids parents probably could either no longer take care of them, abandoned them, or took their life because they couldn't find work. Look at the condition of their orphanage. It's poor, run down, and their toys which beings them the only joy they'll know are essentially junk fall apart. This cartoon really gets me because of that. It makes thankful for the family I have and the life I have and even though this is just a cartoon, it shows what difference one person can make in the lives of others.

So what if not everyone is a masterpiece? They are part of our cultural heritage, and should be preserved at ALL cost..

We likely won't be able to save every last one of them, especially considering how certain issues have changed since they were made (I'm sure you get what issues I mean), but there's at least enough interest that they're not completely gone. And of course people on RUclips can post as much as they're able.

      francy orjuela It was good, but as a kid I was freaked out by how nasty ugly and freaky these orphans were, and likely the weirdest/ugly little imps in cartoon history! I couldn't tell which ones were boys or girls given their screechy voices, grossly-undersized pantless nightgowns, ugly Dutchboy hair, effeminate prancing to the title song earlier in the cartoon, yet they all got traditionally boy gifts. I understand the heart intent of the animators, yet some of these glaring issues actually freaked me out as a kid. I'm glad they weren't real, otherwise they would be certified bully bait on a playground especially if they were sent to school looking the way they did wearing nothing but those pantless nightgowns. Bullies might torment them in every way shy of hate crimes just to laugh at making them cry, and the faculty would almost not blame them or intervene.

I sat them down and showed them this and somewhere in dreamland. I explained to them that even though these are cartoons people have and some are unfortunate enough to live in similar conditions of poverty. By the end they were both in tears. I didnt want to make them cry but they certainly seemed to be more appreciative for the rest of the day.

      Scarlett Rahnavard Yeah it was hard. I just wish the little orphans weren’t depicted as both ugly, sappy, and irritating. When I was a kid, I didn’t know what gender they were either. If you take the toon at face value, it might have been an orphanage for hermaphrodites or weird, cootie-infected boys who became eunuchs in the accident that killed their birth parents. That kind of thing was considered evil in the 1930’s, hence keeping them ugly little unwanted orphans. I say they’re boys because all the toys (broken and Grampy’s) were stereotypically boy ones.
      NOTE: I’m glad real children don’t give me the creeps like these strange cartooned ones

      Other than the little bald baby, these orphans desperately need a haircut, pants, voicebox surgery (to cure their sappy screeching), and likely a bath (to clear away the sewage smell their repulsive appearance suggests). You do that, they’d be adopted by loving families (that wouldn’t find them repulsive and scary) and would give them nice new toys.

    • @Jaymindrew1990
      @Jaymindrew1990 7 лет назад +48

      Fran Morris Agreed. Since I was a kid, I began to think about why the orphans got ratty gifts and why their caretaker wasn't around. If you notice, you don't see any adult caretakers at that orphanage. I firmly believe their absence and the condition of those trashy toys were related. I say this from having made some observations after seeing this many times . . .
      Between the ratty Christmas tree and the doorway to the orphanage bedroom, (seen at the beginning of the film) you'll see a picture of a very mean looking old man, and the picture labeled "our headmaster". Later on, when Grampy is dressed as Santa (and ringing the bell), you'll see that picture has been replaced with one of Santa.
      Given how all the toys broke almost in unison makes me believe that mean looking headmaster and his subordinates had a deliberate hand. I think this was a result of embezzling the better donation toys (that were supposed to go to the orphans), selling them, and putting the most fragile, worn, and unsellable toys in the kids stockings before abandoning them with the stolen money overnight while they slept (explaining why he and the other caretakers weren't there that particular morning to make them food or keep the stoves and fireplaces running). I base this statement on many subtle clues I spotted after watching this many times. I heard the real orphanages of the Depression era often had mean/crooked caretakers and it wouldn't surprise me watching this. Miss Hannigan from Annie is a good example. Grampy's breaking into the orphanage later had a greater purpose than making new toys alone, but he probably saved the little orphans' lives too, namely from freezing to death (while crying on their beds for their toys) with no fires in the fireplace that cold morning.
      As for the orphans looking, acting, and being dressed weird (as some watchers of this cartoon have attested), this is likely the caretakers fault. The orphan's ugly Dutchboy hair, their undersized, pant less girly nightgowns (for boys and girls, and in the freezing winter) and gender indeterminate behavior would render them bizarre & creepy to many, but it's likely the results of the caretakers treating them all the same . . . and not in a humane way. They likely looked down on all of them like gross little rats that they had to tend to. Those caretakers might have been mentally and physically abusive too, regularly beating them severely, feeding them infrequently (or with low quality food), locking them in closets, yanking them around by their hair or ears, bathing them (at least if they even did) by plunging them repeatedly in tubs of freezing water, or who knows what else shy of hate crimes for petty infractions (or just to bully them and make them cry because they thought it was funny to be cruel :( ). And they might have dressed the orphans in nothing else other than those undersized, barely-on gowns also for the purpose of keeping them from running away from that "wonderful, safe little home for kids" and to not "waste money" on clothing those "ugly little rats" :(
      But Grampy ultimately saves the little orphans' Christmas . . . and their lives too. And at the end of the cartoon, they post a large Christmas Seal of Santa as they sing the title song. Christmas Seals are sold to raise money for disadvantaged children (e.g. Orphaned, sick, starving, etc). The Fleischer Brothers likely made this cartoon to raise awareness of the reports of the horrid, subhuman 1930's orphan treatment and to issue a call for child-care reform. After seeing this, they obviously had a good point.
      If they ever made an animated epilogue to this story, I would like to think that Grampy got a Key to The City, and the story of the orphans plight attracted the attention of loving families that wound up adopting every one of those poor children out of that dumpy, ramshackle, and corrupt orphanage.
      And I sure as heck hope they busted those wicked caretakers too.

    I like watching these old cartoons. One thing about this cartoon is it will give you a idea of what life was like in that era. In this time was the depression era and there was so many orphanages because people couldn’t afford to care for the children they had. It’s really sad when you think about it.

    • @Jaymindrew1990

      I agree that Grampy’s kitbashed toys look dangerous and unsettling. I've had nightmares about any of the following happening:
      1). The littlest kid (bald and dressed in white near the beginning of the cartoon) is not seen again after Grampy enters the orphanage, and may have wandered outside and froze to death, becoming a headline and earning Grampy a negligent manslaughter charge.
      2). The clock-powered bird toy's fork feet tears the eyeballs from the kids’ heads, or that spoon-propeller plane strikes glasss window, launching jagged glass on the floor as the kids are prancing around cheering that high-pitched “SANTEEE CLAUS!!!” in their bare feet, gashing them up.
      3). The vacuum-cleaner chair ride wraps it's ceiling-mount electric cord around the kid riding it and strangles or hangs them.
      4). That rocking horse with the shoe head and broom tail rocks too far backward on it’s tracks, throwing that kid screaming “GETTEE UP HORSEEEY!!!” on his/her neck and breaks it. We can thank Grampy just spitting nails to secure it (versus using a hammer).
      5). The kid playing with the electric coffee-pot train would've been sprayed by boiling hot coffee, and he/she would fall screaming with 3rd degree burns on the 120VAC electric tracks and got Sith-lightning electrocuted to death.
      6). On the cotton-covered and painted stairway, soap flakes get blown by the fan into the eyes of those giggling kids on sleds and skis, leading to falls that cause the metal skis and sleds to come apart, shattering their limbs and impaling other kids or themselves.
      7). That umbrella Christmas tree spinning on the turntable falls, pinning the kids to the floor in tandem with the popcorn string sewing machine getting knocked over and burning the place down on the screaming kids. The surviving kids would be disfigured (although it couldn’t be much worse than their creepy looks to begin with, and they wouldn't have those ugly Dutchboy haircuts anymore too).
      EPILOGUE: In the aftermath, Grampy would get busted for trespassing, making dangerous untested toys, and negligent manslaughter while the absent orphanage caregivers get prosecuted for negligence, child endangerment, and accessory to manslaughter.
      CONCLUSION: If any of these things actually happened, Grampy would have done better to just leave those kids abandoned by their orphanage caregivers, crying and forgotten with their broken toys.

      Katharin Fiscaletti it was 90% laughter, 10% children playing with dangerous inventions, and 110% orphans being the ugliest and freakiest little imps in cartoon history! Little wonder they remain unadopted. With their ugly Dutchboy haircuts, pantless & undersized nightgowns, screechy voices, and gender that changes with each camera shift, you'd almost not blame other school kids for mercilessly bullying them if sent to school exactly as depicted here. And they probably smelled like they didn't wipe properly either.

    "Grampy" was a character from "Betty Boop". I wonder if this was a "crossover" since Betty Boop and this cartoon were made in the 1930's?
    As far as the toys the kids got...in the 1950's...when I was little....I got toy guns.(Roy Rogers pistols..Johnny 7 Rifle....Army warfare surplus stuff....) It was "Normal" back then! My parents never once considered it "Dangerous"!!! We all knew it wasn't serious! Just make believe.
