The Mascot

anybody know what the apache (thug) character is pulling out of the monkey's throat (it looks like a washer or a coin?) ? ? ? ? ? ?

The original score was a masterpiece created by real musicians for the film. When an original work of art is timeless, it is just that. Another words, leave it alone!

[Frizzurd]

modern audiences are idiots...and Burton is but a pimple on the ass of these Polish,Russian,Chzec animators. America needs to awaken to this stuff, just as we have with Japanese anime.

Great stuff, from 1933; same year as KING KONG ironically. Much more heart and soul than today's inhuman CGI.

I must not be a modern viewer --the ORIGINAL soundtrack please!!

[GoinCreekin]

The first time I saw this short, I instantly knew where Tim Burton got the idea for "The Nightmare Before Christmas " from.

I'd also like to know what is this music? who's performing? I kinda like it...

[Geritopia]

Yes, please revert to original. So CLOSE!

[marknyc9]

I've posted the entire original film, in three parts.

Amazing! first time I've seen this animation (have to admit i watched it with the sound turned off!), but such brilliant animation, whay way ahead of it's time

[sophiamedium]

Who are the contemporary musical groups featured on the soundtrack? I'd love to know, if anyone has a clue. They were great! I love this man's animation work! - sophiamedium

[lisadal]

thanks but could you please put the original here too. Even if you do think it was shit.

[qqnpp]

This is amazing. I had no idea that this director existed. I think you did this piece justice by remixing it, because if you hadn't put it on YouTube I would have never heard of it. PRAWPS GUY!

[dhmast]

I'm glad you enjoyed it.  I wouldn't use the word justice. But the idea was to make something that's already amazing, more palatable to modern viewers. (I did do some minor editing to the picture as well). I was getting discouraged by all the other comments. You should search for the orginal, and other original shorts from Ladislaw. Thanks again

[timelordchrisp]

the modern score sucks..end of story. Thanks for the post but it violates the artist's original work.

[ytromano]

Great original short. Terrible re-scoring. It completely distracts from the flavor of the imagery. Why would anyone score this with generic digital loops? Completely unrelated audio.

[valaurwen]

Don't change the score! It ruins th original message that Starewicz was trying to convey. Silent film is all about the imagery and the music. You've ruinged it by changing the score.

[richragsdale]

this is one of the best bits of stop motion animation ever - bar none

[nuber11blade]

I love this film, along with it's original score. What's this Fruity-Loops stuff?
