The Rubber Hose March

It’s Rubber Hose Time at Disney, something the studio got away from because it wanted its cartoons to look “real.”

In The Barnyard Battle (1929), there’s a 24-frame cycle of a long-legged soldier marching in place while mice stream into a tent behind him.



The only name in the credits is “drawn by Ub Iwerks.”

  1. In that stream of mice, only one of them isn't wearing any pants.
