Unhappily, Producer Walt Disney tells his shaggy-dog story so doggedly that he soon runs it into the pound.

This 1959 film was Disney's first live-action comedy; it isn't good, but it's certainly mythic.

Brisk but unrewarding.

There are a good many laughs on this simple premise and the script's exploitation of them.
