One Froggy Evening (1955)
No More Shorts for the Frog
This is the single greatest animated short ever made. The uncut version is perfect. The songs are great, the art direction is terrific, and above all the story is priceless.
Spoiler: A construction worker demolishing a building finds a frog in a box in the cornerstone. The frog sings and dances. The man tries to cash in on the miraculous frog, but it will only sing for him. After wasting his life's savings and even spending time in an insane asylum, he hides the frog in the corner stone of a new building...
I don't know why anyone would possibly another film with the frog character. It would be a travesty to use him in another flick. Besides, he's still in the box, waiting for the next poor schmuck to find him.
Big Jake (1971)
About Sam Sharpnose
I have to disagree with kenandraf about Jake's relationship with Sam Sharpnose.
In the scene where Sam takes the dog out of the room, take a moment to consider what the dog would have done when a fight broke out between Jake and his sons.
I do think they could have somehow spared a thought for Sam and the dog in the last scene, but it might have messed up the Happy Ending.
