Everyone wants a scar

Madeline (1952)

Directed by Robert Cannon this cartoon is based on the book of the same name by Ludwig Bemelmans. Twelve girls live in a Catholic boarding school in Paris but one of their number gets appendicitis.

Taking a simple story this is a good adaptation that fits well with the style of UPA's other cartoon. While the plot might be simple and not as funny as some of the other cartoons by UPA it is still entertaining. The animation style is decent as is the narration.


3/5
