Let's Stick Together (Short 1952)

Let’s Stick Together: Directed by Jack Hannah. With June Foray, Clarence Nash, Bill Thompson. Even with his long white beard and aching back, an aging Donald still has to make ends meet by lancing trash in the park. When he happens upon his old partner, an elderly honey bee named Spike, it conjures up memories of the good ol’ days.

“The cartoon begins with an elderly bearded Donald Duck picking up trash in the park. Soon a bee talks to the audience and a flashback begins. Now the bee and Donald are much younger and they were friends and business partners. Apparently, Donald sold balloons and his bee friend was needed to pop everyoneu0026#39;s balloons…bringing Donald more profits. More jobs follow and soon their relationship begins to wane…thanks to Donald being (as usual) a bit of a jerk. How and why? See the short for yourself.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThis is a cute cartoon…not a great one but still enjoyable. Perhaps too cute at times…I like seeing Donald being a jerk and here he isnu0026#39;t that bad…which might explain why itu0026#39;s just a good but not a great cartoon.”
