Review of Christmas Comes But Once a Year

You can tell a Max Fleischer cartoon by some of the backgrounds having a 3-D effect such as in Christmas Comes But Once a Year having a realistic looking exterior of an orphanage or the fluorescent umbrella Christmas tree at the end. In between those two images, we see the orphans getting presents that break down causing them to do the same. Grampy from the Betty Boop cartoons (and his only appearance in color) overhears the commotion and comes in to cheer them up by taking various appliances inside and making various toys out of them. He then dresses up as Santa and brings joy to them all. The end. For any lover of Fleischer, Christmas, and vintage animation, I highly recommend Christmas Comes But Once a Year.
