Synopsis
The star of this animated 23-minute version of Mark Twain's
The Prince and the Pauper
is Mickey Mouse...and Mickey Mouse. The bare bones of Twain's mistaken-identity plotline are adhered to, with several delightful slapstick sidetrips along the way. Supporting Mr. Mouse are such Disney stalwarts as Minnie Mouse, Donald Duck, Goofy, and Black Pete (as the villain, natch.) The film is a delightful harkback to such Disney cartoons of yore as
Brave Little Tailor
(1938) and
Mickey and the Beanstalk
(1947), though there are plenty of contemporary references to keep a 1990s audience happy. When originally released to threatres,
The Prince and the Pauper
included a "count-down" clock to bridge the intermission time between the cartoon and the main feature. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
