Love that Fischerkoesen work (as noted, the multiplane work is especially impressive). The jazzy music reminds me of those melodious hatemongers, Charlie and His Orchestra, who recorded swing music to catapult the propaganda for Goebbels. (YouTube doesn't want me to post a URL, but just Google on "Charlie and His Orchestra" for info from wikipedia and many mp3s at WFMU.) Thanks for uploading it!

this piece has such a warming effect. it came up in a media studies seminar and we discussed nazi germany's intentions when allowing it to show. surely the government didn't mind the happy-go-lucky, blissful attitude of the piece (it upkept a free, happy, facade for german culture). but when it comes to the things that would be considered risque, we thought maybe it was a way to provide audiences an illusion of freedom and lax government.

This is superb and beautiful, just the kind of animation I search for and collect. THANK YOU for postng it!
It's not 50 years ahead of its time...it's just as it should be, for 1942. All the best animation happened between roughly 1928-1945. Nothing this good has happened since, as the industry learned to cut corners to save money.

The industry isn't cutting money as much as it seems. Most CGI movies nowadays cost more money than cel animated movies ever did.
Example:
Snow White cost 1.7 million in 1937. That's 25 million in todays money.
One of the cheapest movies these days, Ice Age, would cost 70 million dollar if made today.
A big Disney movie like Ratatouille costs 150 million.
So where are the cornes being cut?:)
Even expensive movies like Pinocchio and Sleeping Beauty only cost around 40 million.

The name of the track is: "Wenn die woche keinen sonntag hätt"
You can get a instrumental version from: "Werner Schwarz mit seinen Solisten" from 1942.
I don´t know who performed the vocal version from the movie
Greets from Solingen
I see your ... ( 7 months ago by acetremendous)
I see your well-presented point about the relative expense, but I can't agree. Most of today's bloated film budgets go to big salaries for big names, expensive catering, all sorts of junk unrelated to the quality of the animation. There are exceptions, but rarely if ever is an animateed film made now that is lovingly assembled frame-by-frame as were the best of the 1930s. It's not about money spent, it's about craftsmanship. THAT'S where corners are cut.
Also, cuts in ... ( 7 months ago by acetremendous)
Also, cuts in budgets are directly responsible for Disney films going down the toilet, quality-wise. Specifically "Fantasia" (which Fischinger worked on, but was fired from for not kowtowing to Walt's vision) lost so much money and generated so little interest that they immediately streamlined their animation processes into the flat-looking stuff you see in "Alice in Wonderland" and so forth. Disney, as usual, blazed the trail for the rest of the industry.

Nice to see a female bee (scientific accuracy) and I love the design of that fly later on. The poor bee seems a little pressured to keep entertaining everyone, though!
It's such a beautiful animation overall.

Love the use of the multiplane camera effect moving through the grass and the 350-degree shot around the abandoned record player, even if this short did come from Nazi Germany.

I was lucky to see this film sometimes in its nice original colours in the first months of 1945. It was shown in the cinema as introduction in the following spectacle pictures with Zarah Leander and others, produced to suggest us the feeling of normality in the cruel times of war.
However, I´m happy to find the film here in You tube, because I remember it with joy. But it´s a pity, that the correct colours are lost and you cannot watch.
