The first MGM cartoon to be nominated for an Academy Award. moreQuotes:
Grandpa Squirrel: You know, I never could figure those varmints out. They was the horneriest, cussinest, most dag-blasted tribe of varmits you ever saw. They was always a-fightin' and a-feudin' and a-shootin' each other. If it wasn't one darn thing, it was another. No sooner did they settle one argument... moreSoundtrack:

I watched this movie last December and was enthralled with it. I vowed I would purchase a copy of it for each of my three siblings and their families for the next Christmas, and that's right around the corner now. Not sure where to purchase this, however. It was so "right on" and amazing how it shows us how the little animals are much smarter than the big animals that currently are trying to run the government of the United States. If you get a chance, watch this cool little Christmas cartoon because it will surely put a smile on your face while engaging your brain and heart at the same time, but don't let it depress you too much because you will see that it's amazing how the innocent animals know how to keep themselves secure in the face of major threats.
