Must Be an Important Birthday
They certainly try to do the right thing by old Falfa. There's a parade and everyone stands outside singing a song and the mice shoot him in the behind with a 17-inch shell. Surely they didn't do that every year.
Nor did Paul Terry have his staff short on any of the technical details. The background work is as good as anything they had produced the previous year and the uncredited in-betweeners do a fine job. However, while the gags progress in violence, getting bigger and bigger as the cartoon goes on, there's never any indication of why.
Well, there were plenty of unexplained celebrities when I was a kid. Charles Nelson Reilly. John Cameron Swayze. Come to think of it, they all had three-barreled names. Maybe Falfa's first name is really "Farmer".
