Full Rehearsal

Full Rehearsal presents a unique perspective on animation, examining the psychological depths of beloved characters like Mickey Mouse, Tom and Jerry, Daffy Duck, and Goofy. The film is part of a later series of short film loops that includes titles such as Soft Palate and Whistle Stop.

Through its innovative approach, Full Rehearsal invites viewers to reconsider the narratives surrounding these iconic figures. By utilizing classic shorts, including Mickey's Delayed Date and Draftee Daffy, Arnold crafts a thought-provoking commentary on the familiar tropes of animation and their underlying meanings. This work is particularly significant for those interested in the evolution of animated storytelling and its cultural implications.
