The Shooting of Dan McGrew

[pinkymixology]

it's more than a little anachronistic.

Anyone know the song the miner is playing? It's beautiful!

Fun. I keep thinking that all these videos are a great educational resource. Kids in 8th grade or whatever could look at several of them and write a paper explaining which was the best rendition of the poem and why. And what would be a better way to present the poem? This requires real critical thinking. Meanwhile, the students are really immersed in the poem, and will always remember it.

And,,,Warners had Robert C.Bruce narrating Robert W.Service-"Dan McFoo", 1939, introducing Arthur Q.Bryan as the title character, pre-Elmer Fudd but with the same voice, one introduced on radio,

Hmmm..so this was posted in 2008. I saw the GAC Forums link here. Of course this studio is known for "Linus the Lio0nhearted"-and it's actually made by FORMAT FILMS.

[albertmel1000]

Is that Alan Alda doing the narrating? Wait. Walter Brennan. Anybody know.

[pdeerness]

captured the poem well

[elmarshaller]

This is a sweet animation, but I'm afraid the voice just doesn't do Robert service.

[SteveCarras]

@elmarshaller

LOL.

Excellent cartoon. Truly a more adult cartoon.

[cthulhlu]

great cartoon, my only gripe is that they missed out a lot of the poem, when the miner starts playib its described as a song about bieng out in the yukon, and lonleyness.

robert service, pure awsome

[bluecherry11]

Where did you find the cartoon? Like not on youtube or anything,

[mrvrichguy101]

this really helped cause i got a history asignment about the shooting of dan mcgrew

[fromthesidelines]

This was produced at the time Graham was animating "LINUS THE LIONHEARTED" for General Foods on CBS...quite impressive!

[JoedamovieGUY]
