The part where the mom cries because that’s all she can provide and the kids still are so grateful makes me tear up every time
Yep, I love how even though those children were poor they still had respect and integrity, as we know some children act out, become bullies, lose self respect etc. etc. This is the way that it is supposed to be that is why those children got blessed, I love the message that this cartoon radiates.
Same
😭😭😭😭😭
I know such nostalgia it's so sad but true children today are such brats and don't consider the feelings of their own parents. I like this short cartoon
@@artgarcia5977 true.
I used to watch this cartoon with my grandpa, he would always tell me to appreciate the things I have and how hard my parents worked to support us. We were poor, but we were happy.
rw:i remember something like that from a toystory short and this little Angel cat would say at the end of the short"Be thankful for your Gifts,They're all around you".^_^ until he mysteriously vanished outta thin air.
My mother was raised in a modest home that did not have running water or electricity. That home was filled with love and integrity. Mum cherishes her memories now. I liked reading your post 👍🏽
Praise God
Poor is relative. If you have a large garden producing tons of food and is able to live comfortably, then what is poverty ? You are here on earth for experiences, and money is only a tool if you can produce those things with the help of nature and land... so its
Were poor.
They may be poor, but these two children are grateful to have friends and family. They are also well mannered and well behaved
Exactly Max and Dave Fleischer made this cartoon during the great depression is a reminder of America’s dark pass that we should never repeat again
in poverty humbles people
Well-mannered and well-behaved you don't know what kids are
@@pigdictator4558unfortunately, that’s not always true. Poverty can also make people bitter, hard and angry.
It's just an animation bro 😂
I was poor as a child and my parents did their best just like this mom. It makes me cry to see this.
Also, mindblowing visuals for 1936!!
That's Fleischer studios for you.
This is typical animation for the era.
@@dewilew2137
"Typical"? This is from one of the top two competitors in the industry.
Better than Moon landing 🤣
這是小時侯讓我哭的卡通
The Tailor, the Baker, and the Toy Shop owner have heart of golds!
now they just need to find a contractor that can help them fix up that broken down shack they're living in, or hopefully build them a new one.
This is what I remembered from this movie the most. It's always been my favorite
These three are living proof of the good that the world is capable of
They're perverts. They're trying to pay the troll toll.
@YOURMOMGOESTOCOLLEGE they do something good and you try to twist it into something bad, that tells me all i need to know about you
Oh my god, I remember seeing this as a child and being absolutely heart broken. This movie has not left my brain ever since.
Same
Same! I grew up poor & STILL felt worse for them.
Same.
was it the part when the mom cried?
Same. This movie was so powerful it's my first memory as a child and I've often thought about it over 35 years until UA-cam brought it into my life once again.
I remember crying over this as a kid. Age 33 and it STILL brings me to tears!
I remember living this . . . as a kid. To this day . . . in my dreams . . . I dream of being in a Diner where every kind of food, I love, is there for me to eat.
This episode came out during the great depression of the 1930s my friend this is just a reminder of what children were going through during that time
America was going downhill. A lot of people lost their homes. A lot of people are living in the streets.
Hollywood...
Traumatizing Children since 1923
I use to watch this with my family when I was quite little in the early 2000's. My grandma would compare this to her time growing up during the Great Depression, and I never forgot it. Somehow this cartoon was able to bridge that gap and helped me be grateful for what I have rather than what I don't. Rest easy Grandma. I will always remember you through this cartoon, and I will show my children when they are born.
I’m sorry to hear what your grandma was going through my friend, but it was hard at the time America was going to the great depression. It’s this is a reminder of what the country was going through
Who knew the Fleischer brothers can make people cry
Your grandparents were my parents. It's all mom ever talked about.
My grandma was the exact opposite. Granny lived by the dollar and died by the cigarettes.
This cartoon was written during the great depression.
Ugh breaks my heart when the little boy says “aww I’m still hungry ma” 🥺😭💔
Then he seen her crying then he said "I was only joking" rather see his mom happy then have a full belly
@@Jokerman5474 he’s a good kid, they both are!
That part gets to me brother my mom always tells me to be great for the food you have I grew up the same way, almost but my mom always told me to be grateful
Least him & his sister had a mother unlike Oliver Twist
How sad and how kind of the people who helped the family. No child should go to bed cold and hungry anywhere in the world. There's enough food.
That’s kind of reminds me of countries like India part of Africa part of Mexico and parts of Brazil people are not born poor it’s just a greediness of others
It’s not our fault the world is messed up technically it is but we try our best to make the world better
@@luisjaime2567 Actually, people ARE born poor BECAUSE of the greediness of others... which only makes it even worse. Capitalism is so messed up.
One of my teachers told me that there's enough corn in the United States to feed the entire world for like a week.
@@luisjaime2567 , entonces nace rica?no entiendo su razonamiento , perdón,🤔🙄😭😢
He fact that they were dirt poor during the Great Depression totally went over my head as a kid. I was just mesmerized by the fascinating animation.
The Fleischer brothers were animated cartoons during the great depression, and this is just a reminder with children were going through
Hunger starvation lack of medicine America was becoming a Third World country in the 1930s
This is a beautiful cartoon.
It shows empathy towards the less fortunate ❤
Story from 1936 & I'm crying in 2021 ♥️
Me too😔
Gaf
We all are ❤️
Me too!
@17__2018 lffat Moon. I love it, it's so sweet!! The way children's cartoons should be!!❤️🤗
Historical context:
.
This cartoon was made during the last years of The Great Depression in USA. The cartoon somewhat reflected what happened those times.
Another Historical thing about this cartoon: It is the first Fleischer Cartoon to be produced in full 3 Strip Technicolor.
Not just in America but around the world this is just a reminder of how the world had to go through what our grandparents had to live through
@@scottvasquez1401 Max Fleischer was a pioneer of cartoons his family live through the great depression and he had to do what he can
Oh my God ❤I’m 70 years old and I can remember all these videos it brings back beautiful childhood memories I will share with all my grandchildren 🙏👏
So glad to read you will share these films with your grandchildren!
I’m sorry what your family has been through. I mean the great depression really affected everybody in this cartoon shows what kids went through no matter how poor they are.
@@luisjaime2567 if he's 70 he must be from the 50s
I wish you a long life and happiness among your grandchildren. Beautiful memories of innocent childhood ❤❤❤
I just love how all three of those men took time out of their day to give this poor family a free meal. As a kid, I did not appreciate that as much as I do now.
also if you see at the beginning, they probably put that wood for the kids
I'm 32, and me and my sister grew up with this cartoon, especially around Christmas. My parents also grew up with this, and I see why they wanted to share it.
same and I'm 31
When I watch something like this it just reminds me of how lucky I am and how fortunate I am to have what I have
My mom always told me to be grateful the little things that God gives you even if you believe in him or not
Same and I'm 33 Thank you for uploading the video I remember my childhood days! ❤🤗
Yep. I’m almost 35 and had that same video in the 90s.
Makes me sad and very thought provoking. Don't see cartoons like this anymore. I think all children should watch this especially around Christmas time just so they can see how very lucky they are. Thanks for sharing ❤❤❤🌷🌷🌷❤❤❤
Penny?
It’s a sad reality with children in Africa in our grandparents had to go through
Yes that I agree with :) I just love and adore this cartoon :):):)
That's exactly why I put this on for my kids, it's not too hard hitting but they can see that not everyone has what they have.
@@luisjaime2567 Yes, it's sad, but why does Africa do poorly?
Genesis 9:25
25 And he said, Cursed be Canaan; a servant of servants shall he be unto his brethren.
Cannan was Ham's son. Ham means burnt or black. Africa was cursed by God for what Ham did to Noah.
Now you know why African, in fact most dark-skinned peoples, do not thrive!!
Im 33, and had this on VHS when i was a kid. Watched it so many times. Nice to revisit it
😍
Know whats crazy? This came up in my recommendations after watching other video on that vhs "christmas comes but cone a year". I'm 34 myself, we probably had the same exact vhs bro!
Im 3 years younger and also seen many old cartoons, this one in special feels very nostalgic
No way, we’re the same age and I too had the Fleisher vhs cartoons
I’m 34 and had a couple of these vhss with these old cartoons on them which I would watch regularly as a kid. It’s strange to think that at the time I guess I just thought they were the shows for that time(or maybe a little bit old at least) but they actually would already have been around 60yrs old by that point.
If they would imagine their mom also being happy in a dreamland, having fun with them, that would be touching
This is a reminder of what America was going through back in the great depression of the 1930s. This is what our grandparents had to go through. It was hard on them.
Children of that age don't really have empathy yet, so this is totally normal
I am watching this on my 61st birthday. saw it many years ago, it made me cry them, it made me cry today.
@ralpharroya158 Happy 61st birthday to you from CCC!!! 🤩
Literally balling my eyes out. I am now 30 but my mom used to play this episode for me it was my favorite.
As i grew up I have always remembered it and have tried to look for it over the past years and never came across it until TODAY!
Finally… I am currently pregnant and will definitely have my daughter watch this ♥️ thank you!
Does curtain came out during the great depression of the 1930s it was a dark time for America. Our grandparents live through this are great grandparents grew up in this.
They had it rough, but they worked hard to take care of our parents, our grandparents and stuff
This episode is just a reminder of what’s happening to America at the time what was happening?
🎉🎉
I'm amazed by this handmade, totally handmade, truly handmade cartoons. not one pre or post processed image by computer. parallax scrolling, wonderful colours, fluid animations. unbelievable hard work behind.
the ending gave me chills!! The way they eat their dessert before their dinner is so cute. I love how they were still grateful and thanked their mom even after she cried. Such sweet children, we must all raise our children to be humble 💕
I remember how rough it was for me and my mom seeing this again makes me appreciate the things I have
And during this pandemic situation it’s hard for everyone I had to quit college to help my mom and siblings i have to work hard to help my mom pay bills
Oh god I’m crying
I would understand that pain you must have been through. I hope you and your family are ok this day now and tomorrow
@@average-art3222 thank you
You're a strong person❤
You are a very good person to help your Mom.
Had similar happen for other reasons a time ago. Keep going, never loose hope and when it comes to college, you can always go back later. I just started again in my 40s finishing my undergrad. Good things will happen for you and things WILL turn around for you and your family!!
I can’t believe I found this.. I remember watching it as a child and I was so drawn by it. Still am I can’t watch this over and over. And not get tired.
omg same!
Same! The moment I heard the song play, I remembered watching it as a child.
Kingdom marriage couple, proposal time!!!!🥰🥰🥰
Saw this as a kid in the late 90s. Stuck with me forever. I grew up lower class and still felt awful for these kids..... Now I'm a dad and both of these babies look and act like mine....I can't stop crying. We aren't doing anywhere near as bad as I was when I was a kid and I think this cartoon helped with that.
This is an American culture treasure. The rotoscope filming is somewhat rare. And it presents such good values for children to learn. Just wonderful!
This episode was a reminder what America was going through in the great depression in the 1930s and 20s to
I can’t believe I found this.. I remember watching it as a child and I was so drawn by it. Still am I can’t watch this over and over. And not get tired. I
This made me nostalgic, heartbroken and I'm crying, but I feel so happy to know that despite the hardships, my mom did what I could say right now almost the impossible, to raise us and we weren't rich, nor terribly poor, our needs were met and we had what we could. We were happy with it. I remember these cartoons and my childhood comes. My mom loves this style of cartoons and I know she would love to see them. Unfortunately back then, we saw them with voices in Spanish, so I can't find the doub version in Spanish, but I'm sure she'll love to watch them again.
I grew up with these cartoons as a kid this one right here really made me cry and my mom always told me to be happy of the country you’re living in her grandparents had it rough But they still made it through
Be grateful that we’re not living in the past like this during the great depression of the 1930s, but it feels like we’re going back there again
@@luisjaime2567 I understand you...
Which country do you live in?
@@betulavc7623 I'm from and live in Costa Rica
I grew up with this. Made me relate so hard as a kid :(
Brings tears to my eyes.. i used to tell bedtime stories of a candyland to my brothers and sisters before bed, to help prevent bad dreams, and the idea came from this cartoon.
Plus, we were pretty poor, and went hungry a few times, so this just resonates with me. I love old Fleischer brothers cartoons.
I also like Christmas comes but once a year from the Fleischer brothers too 💖☮️
They were showing what was happening at the time the Fleischer brothers were animators and pioneers
Before Walt Disney became king of animation, the Fleischer brothers were the kings of animation
@@luisjaime2567 thats what i though as well. ☮️🕊️
I watched this as a child, im 74. It still makes me teary eyed!!,💗💗💗
What a sweet animation..
Little children with little wish..❤
God bless all children in the world..🤲 amen..
The baker and other restaurant owners appear to be Italian descent, which also made a statement in this era! What a touching cartoon. I had never seen it before and it brought me to tears. So many suffered during the great depression, and then they lived through the horrors of WW2.
The most violent storms create the brightest rainbows
When you're around an Italian you will never go hungry.
Oh my God, I love this cartoon so much. It reminds me of the good old days. I love it so much.😭🫶🏻
We need this back today more than ever 😢
I'm in my late 20s now, but when growing up as a kid I had a VHS of all these classic cartoons like Popeye, Casper, and the 3 Stooges, and this one has always stayed in my mind. Such a sweet cartoon. Now as a grown man this definitely makes me tear up.
Its ok, pal, its ok
6hr+ vhs with 150 cartoons? Had it too. Felix the cat, little lulu, woody woodpecker, and many "silly symphony"cartoons. There was the Christmas section including a live action nativity one and the ballerina &tin soldier. Good memories
*been able to find most on yt-11/7/2023
I had a DVD with all these cartoons! All those Mel-O-Toons, and the classic Superman, and Betty Boop!
My mom always joked about how her cheapness with DVDs when we were growing up was what led me to studying animation!
Think we had the same VHS. This sweetness destroyed me then, it’s destroying me now, lol.
Man, it’s like looking at a depressing reality of what would happen if Popeye left Olive Oyl as a single mother.
Thats what I thought as well. LOL. Is this the first version of Olive Oyl?
She always had Bluto and he was much more badas.
Bluto turned out to be an abusive sob. After Popeye's ship sank Olive Oyl & daughter we're alone. (Bluto just wanted her Marine widows pension.) Then left her with a boy baby.
Fleischer Studio stories with kids are some of the best stories... It's so often about kids who need something and even if they don't behave as well as demanded of them in that time, they barely ever get punished. It's full of love. And despite the quality of the videos and the deterioration, really well animated, especially the backgrounds.
This and Christmas comes once a year are amazing classics that I'm glad I get to show my own children now
You right i will show them to my kids oneday
If you're not empathetic, sympathetic, or saddened during the first 3 minutes of this cartoon...
You're obviously not fully understanding what is going on during those 3 minutes.
God Bless you and yours during this Christmas season, but especially anyone who might resemble the start of this cartoon.
And praise God for what ever Blessings they already have.
Beautiful and appealing to people generosity and sense of humanity and mercy to help others.
They went from having just one mom, to having 1 mom and 3 dads. Best ending ever.
Not Just dads, one IS a Baker and one IS a tailor
Seems like a black kids life
@@riddles4237 that's not funny 😕
@@Flomokoo I wasn’t laughing
Polyamory should be the resolution to more of the worlds problems
Im a grown man and i cried to this
I haven't seen this since I was a little kid and we had a VHS of all old and classic cartoons.
It definitely hits differently as an adult with kids than it did when I was the kid.
I managed to hold back the tears when the mom started crying because that's all the food there was, but I lost that composure when they pulled up their little blankets and they were so riddled with holes that they didn't even cover their little bodies. 😭
It's wild how a child can see the best in everything.
I seen this as a child and just thought It was a fun cartoon.
But watching it as a 39 year old I see the truth to this and honest to God it's bringing tears to my eyes.
I don't know wether I'd rather be ignorant to such things like I was as a child or to feel and known how it truly is.
The prospect of ignorance is only phesable in ignorance alone for once one becomes aware there is nothing that can remove that awareness.
Just happy to be alive.
God Bless you all!!
I first watched this when I was 4, and I vividly remembered key details of it. So when I was bored one day I looked it up and found it. Brings back memories of how positive and innocent I was for only remembering the dream portion 😊. But at the same time, it’s horribly sad! This is a sad reality for a vast majority of people worldwide.
Old classics is gold classics.
I have just spent the past twenty minutes trying to explain to Google the memory I had of this cartoon, as a grown woman and mother now this hits even harder then I remember as a child, a beautiful work of art to this day, so happy to have found this again, be safe everyone, don’t forget to count your blessings 🤍
The music is so touching
As a kid, I never thought this was sad. I loved it because of the food areas they walked through in Dream Land.
I want to think that at the end of this short, the Baker graciously gave their mother a job and she would bring home the left over baked goods.
I've first seen this when I was 7 years old. I am 42 years old and this still makes me cry
Beautiful cartoon such grateful children 😍 knowing that they're mother is struggling but still manages to give them food on the table and put a roof over their heads
Breaks my heart so hard every single time
Memory childhood.....I got it worse when I was young. I'm glad I watched it again 😊😊❤❤
I remember my mom buying me this VHS movie and watching it pretty crazy how I came across it again after so many years.
My Grandma bought me a cartoon tape with a lot of cartoons on it, and this was one of the cartoons that was on it. I used to love this cartoon so much when I was little.
Finally found this🤩😍🥰😘My mom and me always cried our eyes out when we used to watch this. It's amazing to know this was made before ww2, and with such amazing animation at that time 😮
One of the best classic short films ever!
Ugh this is the cartoon made me just love kids in general 🥺🤧🤧 so cute and small and innocent… they don’t deserve any form of suffering or sadness … all children should grow up happy, carefree.. no trauma.. 🥺 the “I’m still hungry mom~” breaks my heart into so many pieces 😫😫😫😫😫
Hermoso corto animado 😢🥹❤
It’s so precious, my heart just melts. 🥺❤️ I’m glad these precious babies got to enjoy themselves and get full in Dreamland ❤️🥺 they’re so cute and innocent, my heart just can’t take it
I remember this cartoon, had it on a VHS Tape along with others Anyone who remembers this cartoon, deserves a gold medal. Because this was a very Darling, Charming, and Heartfelt cartoon taking place During the depression, poor kids and their Mother. They just don't make them like these anymore and that's just sad. 😢
كانت ايام جميله عندما اشاهد مثل هاذيه الافلام ابكي ع زمنا الجميل اسال الله ان يكون زمن اولادنا اجمل وان يتعلمو حب الخير والبساطة والاحساس بوجع الأخرين
2:45 i just realized that song playing in the background is “schubert serenade”
I remember watching this on a tape player
I grew up poor and was homeless almost half of my childhood I would watch this on repeat waiting for something like this to happen to me
Where a person is when he is old, he may remember his situation when he was the age of children. If he was 60, 70, 80, or 90 years old, he must remember when he was a child. Children’s lives are wonderful and beautiful.❤
Always tear up bad, when I watch this. The end is what makes the tears come down. Love the old cartoons.
Using CGI computer looking cartoons cannot match the real paint colors from old cartoons, let's go back to the old drawing board, need any proof, just look at this beautiful cartoon.
Agreed, So beautiful
He recordado mis días de infancia tiempos inolvidables qué bello
😢✌💝
This video, along with a few others inspired me to give 3 of my top students who were very poor a ps5 for each one of them, as well as a bunch of accesories, school supplies and a lot of food, i'm an elementary school teacher from mexico. The sweet smile of the grateful, well behaved children has no price.
Had this on Vhs in 1999, just a 9 year old around that time enjoying cartoons, that left me lasting memories into my adulthood. What year did anyone else remember seeing this...
It wasnt until i watched this as an adult i realised every shop owner purposgully put a piece of wood out for the kids to "find" this little short always made me emotional 😭
😢😢
I watched this whole thing through. My head instantly goes to Grimm's darker versions. When the Kids go to sleep, they die due to malnourishment. Their bodies float up to heaven, and when they wake up, they see a feast. Somewhere in Dreamland seems to me a darker version, and Parallels the story of The Little Match Girl. My mind sees this story interpretation through Grimms and Perrault's lens.
Tbh I thought they were dead
انا من المغرب واتذكر ابي واخوتي كانوا يأتون بشرائط فيديو لهذا الكرتون اتذكر هذه الحلقة تقريبا واستحضر تلك الايام الدافئة والجميلة
I used to watch this a lot as a kid.. we had it on a vhs tape full of looney tunes or old cartoons or something. I'm amazed i found it.. i used to always get so emotional watching it.
The scenery in Dreamland is impressive for its time! Did they use real scenery mixed with drawings? That's it? Amazing.
I would say so. For example, at 6:18
The mother has the same body type of Olive Oyl....this is after all a Fleischer cartoon!
Adolph Zukor lived to be 103. If you saw this as a kid in the 80s it would have brought tears to your eyes.
From Japan. I also watched think movie more than 45years ago. Very happy to watch again!
Que maravilha de desenho adorei que tempos maravilhosos que não voltam mais 😢
Ñaselory Lomos Dada I'meat Mama aculy
This cartoon means so much to me.
Thank you so much for sharing this oldie but goodie! My sister and I had a VHS tape (we’re 80s kids) with this and a handful of other classic cartoons on it and watched it all the time! The scene showing the mom crying after her son said he was still hungry AND him comforting her after seeing her reaction got me emotional as a little kid and hits another level now that I’m a mom of three. What a beautiful message - definitely showing this to my kiddos today!
This is my FAVORITE cartoon. It got me through some tough times as a kid and to this day I get emotional watching it. I think of it often and had to search to find it. No one ever knows what it is but that’s fine. It’s great to see others who love it just as much ❤
38y old, grew up with this on a VHS tape that my sis & I watched over and over... may have been one my mom taped from tv specials. It used to make me so sad even as a child... and now as an adult, it hits on so many different levels. :(
It doesn’t matter how many times I watch this. It’s always magical! ❤
As a kid this movie thought me to be grateful for what i was given .
I first watched this in the 80s and now in 2022 I'm watching with my oldest son, why? So he can see that some people really don't have much. He knows but this is a good reminder. We'll watch Christmas comes but once a year next.
Only legends with Great taste are here
OMG See what appeared in the recommended videos. The last time I saw this cartoon was 24 years ago, I thought to a certain extent that this cartoon had never actually existed and that I had dreamed of it. What great memories :)
Como os desenhos antigos eram mais bonitos e cheios de valores bons.
2:53 "Aww that's alright, I was only fooling" 🥺
Aww I recall watching this as a child, like many of you. I was absolutely mesmerized by this cartoon. 🥺And although I knew it was sad, I now know I had never fully grasped the enormity of this short story, til now, watching it as a full grown adult woman 😢
Glad there was a happy ending to the story as we know it. However we know that their story didn't end with the grand Christmas dinner 😓at least they had a wonderful happy Christmas ❤
these are the kids who actually grows up being humble and are good souls .
01:58
Poor Olive, Popeye leave her with 2 kids.
LOL Too bad. I always thought Popeye was a good guy.
I seriously doubt Popeye, or really even *BLUTO* would _ever_ leave Olive Oyl in such dire circumstances intentionally. They're better than that.
He may have been killed by the Sea hag, who then stole all the wealth and posessions he left behind for his family in case he died.
I love that the small business owners donated their hard work to provide a special moment for the children. They were so grateful they probably would have just been elated to see the ice cream. But they had a full turkey and presents waiting for them too.
This Cartoon made me cry😭 the poor mother and the poor Kids 😭
This was a real this cartoon came out during the great depression of the 1930s this was my grandparents Mexico had it on great depression to
I saw it on a MeTV Christmas special with Toon In with Me hosts Bill and Toony last night, but I don't remember much about it.
I was watching that too; couldn't believe when I saw it again after all these years. I had the TV on in the background not watching it, and didn't even notice until the little boy said, "I'm going to dunk!" I immediately recognized it and thought "holy shit it's that cartoon!!"
Same. That was the first time I had seen it since I was a little kid on an old VHS tape of Christmas cartoons. This is a sad reminder of life during the Depression, and how kind those shop owners are.
This was on a VHS christmas collection I had as a kid- still love the cute story
I have this and "Christmas comes one a year" on DVD- which has been lost when moving, I'm so glad u can watch it again! I remember this like the back of my hand
I knew this existed LMAO I saw this as a kid and never forgot it
