Plot[]

Characters[]

Trivia[]

  • Much of the animation of the big tornado is taken from the 1935 Mickey Mouse cartoon, The Band Concert
  • This was the debut for a newly updated Mickey Mouse design: Mickey was given ears that worked in perspective (in lieu of his traditional, unchanging circles for ears), in addition to a slimmer body, larger head, hands and feet as well as buck teeth (the latter lasting for just two shorts; Canine Caddy was the other), and the absence of a tail. This cosmetic change was relatively short-lived, and only lasted for the duration of World War II. (Although the poster still shows that Mickey's design is the same as The Pointer, Tugboat Mickey, Pluto's Dream House, and Mr. Mouse Takes a Trip).
