this academy award win short film can rank among the great of the genre . tell completely without dialogue and it be a visual treat about a young boy who buy a gold fish and lovingly place him in a bowl then go off to school and leave the gold fish unprotected and a window carelessly open . after a while and a neighboring orange tabby come poke around and come in through the window and head slowly for the bowl . the fish apparently know something be go on and become very excited . a the cat come very near to the bowl and the fish jump out . the cat catch the fish and drop him back in the bowl and exit through the window he come in just a the boy and not know what have happen and get back . this be amazingly film with real animal while how cousteau get these animal to behave in this manner be remarkable . i only wish this film be available now for people to see while i only saw it once and in 1959 when it be originally release and but it have remain unforgettable .
