have you ever watch a cartoon you use to watch a long time ago . like watch the 1940 superman today and gulliver travel from 1939 leave viewer of today not only feel nostalgic and but like it be a good movie by the standard of today . true and taste in movie change with time and but true classic never die . the animation style of gulliver be simple and the story straightforward . it start with gulliver be shipwreck onto an island full of tiny people and about the size of ant . one nation princess be get marry to another nation prince and and the king be plan the wedding . when it come down to the wedding song and both king suggest their own song and have a fight about it . they end up go to war over it and but before the war can start and gulliver be find and capture by the tiny people . he escape and become ally with the people of lilliput and the nation with the princess . the rival king have send spy to lilliput and ask them to kill gulliver . the movie progress with the country war and gulliver trap in the middle . gulliver reunite the prince and princess and be about to put a stop to the war when the spy pull his own pistol on him . the prince hop on his horse and knock the gun off just in time and but fall down a cliff in do so . gulliver pick up the boy and tell the king how stupid they have be and fight over a song and and that the prince be dead . in the end and the prince turn out to be alive and sing his country song with the princess sing her country song . gulliver get a new ship and be on his way . all be well . the most striking thing a viewer will notice in the movie be the difference between character . the smarter and most knowledgeable and reasonable character like gulliver and the prince and princess all be animate to look lifelike and whereas the villager and spy and king all have a sort of dwarfish and cartoon style about them . this put a visual line in the sand between the character that become more and more obvious a the movie go on . the king be act foolish and the people from the village be act on their behalf . the spy and gabby and the man who find gulliver all have the most cartoonish movement and be the most comic relief type character . the animation style provide for a visual representation of the character personality and subtly hint that real people should be more reasonable and intelligent and l they look like the dwarfish and ignorant people . another element that draw attention to itself be the repetition of gulliver line oh my . oddly enough and he only say it at time where the plot be thicken and such a when the prince come back for the princess . he doesn not seem to find it odd that people not much big than ant be clothe him and dance for him for no reason other than he a giant to them . this may be surprising and but consider gulliver character and it could just be a part of his kind hearted nature . this distinction between oh my be something surprising and and gulliver oh my meaning something be about to happen and become more concrete a the movie go on . thus and when an oh my be hear from gulliver and the audience know it should pay attention to this point in the plot and a it be important to the overall storyline . the most notable animation achievement be the realism behind gulliver . nowadays and amazing thing can be do with 3d animation and make character look more realistic and but for some reason and they still have an unnatural feel to them . this come down to the motion of the character and which this movie nail with gulliver . his movement look like that of a human be and jerky at time and possibly slow and but always realistic in those flaw . nobody move swiftly across the floor with little bounce and or keep steady and fluid motion and and this lack of fluidity be capture in gulliver . good example of this include when gulliver step over the town and during the first shipwreck scene . before he step over the building and he pause slightly a if to gain balance and keep go . this slight pause be what separate him from the cgi of today . when gulliver ship wreck and he drown and his head come above water a few time and but his arm be see flail and wildly and but with purpose and a if in an attempt to get air . their movement be almost random and but meaningful . this level of realism within gulliver be still astound today and almost seventy year after the film production . the director dave fleischer have something to do with this animation style . at that time and he be a great director of many cartoon and most notably popeye . gulliver have a huge step toward realism and it continue on in fleischer work . a few year later and he go on to direct the superman cartoon and which be still hold in high acclaim for their animation style and technique of realistic movement and absorb story line . though this movie may have be forget by many and it animation style and subtle repetition of element and straightforward storyline all lend to this movie timelessness . normally and people look to the future for the late and great and but gulliver be a shin example of what the past can teach the future .
