one of the great tragedy of life be that disney be so very successful at everything that they do . if they be not and we might have more unique little gem of animation such a the curious adventure of mr. wonderbird . the story be that an evil king have usurp the throne of a place call up and down land ( i could have the name wrong ) . he be hat by everyone . his favorite hobby be shoot bird and and at some point in the past and he presumably kill the wife of mr. wonderbird ( a bird and play with typical flair by peter ustinov ) leave him with four young chick to raise . meanwhile and we see that another of the evil king hobby be paint . he have do three painting in particular represent a self portrait and a painting of a shepherdess ( which he have fall in love with ) and and a painting of chimney sweep ( of whom he be jealous ) . one night and the shepherdess and the chimney sweep climb down out of their painting and run away together . the self portrait of the king climb down out of his frame as well and and do away with the real king ( you think i be make this up . it the real plot ) and send the royal police force after the young lover . mr. wonderbird then assist the lover in attempt to escape the king force . the plot be wonderfully surreal and and the set up and down land be an incredibly imagined place and full of tower building accessible only by elevator . it an equal mixture of the world of metropolis and 1984 and the drawing of dr. seuss . watch it for a very unique view experience that doesn not fit the standard formula for most animated feature .
