Short, but decent take on the famous story

Warning: Spoilers
There is certainly no need to elaborate on the story of "Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer" as it is so well-known, even over 65 years after this 8.5-minute cartoon was made. The director is Max Fleischer and he is certainly a name to many with an interest in these old brief animation movies. The narrator here is Paul Wing, his only effort in that position. I must say the voice acting was okay all in all, but I would have preferred an older actor to voice Rudolph as he does not look like a very young reindeer anymore and the voice actor here certainly still was very young. Anyway, this short film here is evidence that not only Warner Bros and Disney were the big players in the 1940s when it came to animation. I think this was a decent watch and with under 10 minutes, you cannot really do a lot wrong. Check it out during the holidays if you like. I give it a thumbs up.
