Sweet, sweet memories. For a few moments there I was 7 years old again. My sister and I had the book, and made my mother read it over and over. They also played this little film on public television at least a couple of times a week. I took for granted how blessed I was in childhood!

+darthstarkiller1912 First, he animated in Walt Disney Studios such as Fantasia Bambi, Pinocchio and other chassic, then moved Warner Bros cartoons, then, he animated Columbia Pictures (including this cartoon), and final, moved to Peanut classic cartoons such as Charlie Brown.
@@durece100 He also directed various tv commercials before Peanuts. In fact, his first work for Peanuts, the first animated work with the Peanuts characters, were commercials for Ford.
It’s weird that they stuck so closely to the original illustrations - basically recreating them in precise detail - and yet made two curious changes - the teacher is no longer a nun, and Madeline looks indistinguishable from the other girls, rather than standing out as the only redhead amidst eleven brunettes. Both are very odd choices, and I can’t help wondering what motivated them.
I think I read somewhere that the teacher is meant to be a nurse rather than a nun, since she’s called Miss (or Mademoiselle, I suppose) Clavel rather than Sister/Sœur. I think the hair might be because of discrimination against redheads?
Robert Cannon, the cartoon's director, was a fine animator in the 1940's at Warner Brothers, and worked on a lot of Chuck Jones' films there. Later, he worked at MGM, and then moved to UPA. He was known as "Bobe" Cannon.
I have such a soft spot for the original Madeline books, this short, and the tv specials from the ‘80s. They have such a timeless and youthful charm to them. I had a plush Madeline doll when I was really small that had a little stitched-on scar if you took her coat and dress off. I wonder if my parents still have it somewhere?
You can tell the later DiC and CINAR Madeline cartoons took some inspiration from this short, particularly the way the backgrounds crossfade inbetween scenes but the characters don't.
i remember opening the book, and immediately i was there in line like madeline. :) there was nothing else around but the dim of paris and the brilliant little wee..
Yay; this is exactly what I was looking for. I first watched this in my 3rd grade classroom and it was in many ways the primary catalyst for a subsequent series of personal epiphanies.
Recently got into UPA’s animated films. This one hit way too close to home for me, as I recently pulled a muscle in my ribcage & initially thought it was appendix related- i’m so thankful it wasn’t, but still, I nearly cried watching this. It’s a very beautiful short.
I didn't know this existed as the original of this animation, before the one in the 80s or 90s, I last watched the other I think in 2015 I last watched on youtube and when seeing this ending of this original animation, I didn't get why Madeline is never shown going back to the boarding school being well after showing the door at 6:33 and then what fin end, at first I thought she died and I'm like Madeline will never die like in the remake one I first seen also had that same thing happened!
People should be reminded as they watched this that it was the first time the book was adapted to animation, and obviously they had quite a chore trying to get Bemelmans' style down enough to work for animation. One of the animators on this, Bill Melendez, obviously used the skills he acquired at UPA to help him to adapt Charles Schulz's famous Peanuts characters to animation later on.
"Miss Clavel is clearly a nun (though the order is unclear), and this is clearly a convent school in Paris, yet Bemelmans's grandson said on NPR recently that Miss Clavel is not a nun and Madeline is not French. Tres bizarre." Well, it's clear his grandson doesn't know anything. "(Also that it was a school, not an orphanage. Why would anyone think it was an orphanage? 'Annie'?)" I hate to admit, not knowing anything about convent schools, I thought it was an orphanage too when I first saw this as a 4 year old.
Christopher Sobieniak I figured out it was a school from the DIC movie. but I can see Why people would make the mistake given the nun and that (at least in DIC) Madeline was an orphan. I think the main confusion comes from that they dont really explain it, and she is a nun. its hard to remember the sequel books.
No, she's a nurse. That's just how they dressed back then. I think Tristar was a little confused about that (although Frances McDormand was awesome). Madeline was originally intended to be American studying in Paris. Maybe she's been there long enough to adopt the accent. I lived in Tennessee for eight months and was starting to get that accent.
This really reminds me of the very first episode they had for the animated series from the 90s I grew up watching. Super super cute. Though I could have sworn she was suppose to have red hair, even from the very first story? Still, super cute and charming.
Yeah book series, short cartoon in 52, a Shirly Temple play in the 70s' I think? And than the Madeline tv show in 1988-2003is? Oh yeah and a movie in 1999 I think. Over all not a bad run.
Honestly a good short but I sorta perfer the 1980’s-1993 look for the Madeline tv series cause despite the show being more aimed at a kid audience it’s still worth revisiting
Oh, I also forgot in this all the little girl's outfits and Miss. Clavel too are red rather then yellow until later it was accurately coloured yellow and Clavel's blue.
They've gone through several colors. In the original specials they just wear their school uniforms. I think their yellow jackets are for fall and spring. In the books they swap between red and blue. (Lord Cucuface must get real indecisive about branding the school network). Wouldn't be surprised if the next book has them wearing green.
"Which is why it works better than any other adaptation of this material I've ever seen" It was the first one I ever saw when I first saw this cartoon in the 80's!
I think it's charming, but you need to have that originality to keep the series fresh. Plus, there's a lot more little details packed into the Madeline books than what you catch in central frame or in the text. This doesn't quite do that justice. For one, Madeline's magician friend from the Christmas book and at the White House pops up in the background of the book.
This was released on DVD a few years ago from TCM called "The Jolly Frolics Collection". It also has a commentary track with Jerry Beck and the narrator of this, Gladys Holland.
Side note, I was just browsing and I know that it is an old debate, but I looked up nun and nurse outfits for the time period and honestly I still think Ms.Clavel is a nun teaching in a Catholic boarding school (hence the prayers at night when they are breaking the bread...even if it is kept simple) because the nurse outfits I kept finding usually included aprons and their hats didn't have long flaps like Ms.Clavel's hat. Not to mention a lot of nuns did learn medicine (hence the nursing aspects) plus taught/took care of kids often in schools and orphanages so it isn't unreasonable to assume she's a nun.
So much better than (children's) cartoons of today; full of subtle adult humor and sexual innuendo. We need to get back to more quality programming like this.
Could someone put up the other 3 Madeline shorts that are from Rembrandt Films called, Madeline's Rescue, Madeline and the Bad Hat and Madeline and the Gypsies?
Shame that he did - watch "Tom Turk and Daffy" sometime, the poses are a work of genius. This piece is a masterful bit of staging - Cannon was a nut for Ballet, and I can see a balletic sensibility in his compositions.
That's how the books are. Although if you notice there's always one other girl at the back of the line on Ms. Clavel's left holding her hand. I would figure she's Danielle or Nicole. (In the movie she'd be Aggie). Seems like maybe she's a little more dependent than the rest of the girls, nervous of new things and that's why she stays by Ms. Clavel for support. On the contrary Ms. Clavel is holding Madeline's hand to keep her in place so she doesn't go running off to explore (more independent). That's why Danielle and Nicole have so much dialogue in the show because they stick by Madeline who's more brave.
Because they weren't thinking...but I'm surprised Sesame Street didn't BEG the Bemelmans to let Madeline become a recurring character on their block. Joe Raposo and Judy Rothman worked on that too.
@@thenewadventuresofhenry6998 Yes, Joe Raposo did compose the music for the 1988 DiC special, which came out 10 months before his death. I do wonder if he actually did write a lot of the music heard in the special many years before its release, for other programs?
Miss Clavel is clearly a nun (though the order is unclear), and this is clearly a convent school in Paris, yet Bemelmans's grandson said on NPR recently that Miss Clavel is not a nun and Madeline is not French.

+Margot Darby I always thought it was an orphanage. A lot of them are run by nuns and the girls' parents are almost never mentioned. I think it actually was an orphanage in the live action movie, but I'm REALLY curious by this notion that Madeline wasn't French and Miss Clavel isn't a nun? I mean, maybe Madeline was born somewhere else like England or the US or something and was just sent there by her parents?
@@caseyj5637 Madames of the Sacred Heart were regularly called Madame (or Mother) St-Claire or Mme O'Connor, etc. This is clearly a convent school, not an orphanage.
@@thenewadventuresofhenry6998 Edith Cavell was a nurse, Miss Clavel is not a nurse. Yes, 100 years ago nurses dressed in habits akin to nuns' habits and they were accordingly addressed as "sister," but they were not nuns.
I had to get my appendix removed yesterday, and all I could think about was this old story. In fact, when I texted my friends to tell me I had appendicitis, I said, "Well, just call me Madeline!"
Wait a minute, New Dream Madeline Collection; 12 Original Madeline Books, 6 Madeline TV Specials in VHS, 5 Complete New Adventures of Madeline TV Series in Prime Videos, 3 Madeline Movies in DVD, 1 Live Action Madeline Movie in Blu-Ray, and 1 Madeline CD-ROM Game.
I'm sure that film tend to update the look of the girls if it was set in the "present day" (of course I suppose the original story was as well when it was first published).
I wonder if Madeline had the same impact on people as Robin Hood, Tarzan, & Mighty Joe Young, meaning that people were introduced to her with the Disney version instead of other versions.
3:21 I wanna have a word with the animator responsible for making that arm looking like a tentacle and being stationed in her stomach. It looks more like a leg than an actual arm😂😂 4:14 and you sir, never enter a bike in other people’s homes and certainly never leave it behind 😂😂 Remember kids, that’s very bad education.
Strangely he grew to resent his Warner Bros. work as I suppose UPA liberated him to do what he did best here. Too bad he died another 12 years after this cartoon was released.
The Post-UPA Madeline series weren't exactly known for their brevity, were they? Come to think of it, they weren't really known for attention to detail, either.
It's hard not to love Madeline. She was a giant part of my childhood growing up- and so cute and simple in appearance~!
