Genres: Music, Animation, Comedy, Family
The two pigs building houses of hay and sticks scoff at their brother, building the brick house. But when the wolf comes around and blows their houses down (after trickery like dressing as a foundling sheep fails), they run to their brother's house. And throughout, they sing the classic song, "Who's Afraid of the Big Bad Wolf?".

"I toot my flute and I don't give an hoot" - well that's the attitude of the first piggy who builds his house of hay. The second "plays on his fiddle and doesn't give a diddle" as he builds his rather drafty looking dwelling from sticks. Finally, the third finds "work and play don't mix" as he builds his home of bricks. A musical rendition of "Whose Afraid of the Big Bad Wolf?" perhaps tempts providence though and when their salivating predator does arrive, he huffs and puffs and.... well you know the story. I did like this animation, the wolf has a degree of (comedic) menace as he pursues the pigs using a range of disguises and his considerable wind-power before he ends up turning a bit blue! It's nicely scored, colourful and quickly paced and even if I did rather want the wolf to save us from their singing...
Movie Recommendation
The Grasshopper and the Ants1934-02-10As in the classic fable, the grasshopper plays his fiddle and lives for the moment, while the industrious ants squirrel away massive amounts of food for the winter. With his song, he's able to convince at least one small ant until the queen arrives and scares him back to work. The queen warns the grasshopper of the trouble he'll be in, come winter. Winter comes, and the grasshopper, near starvation, stumbles across the ants, who are having a full-on feast in their snug little tree. They take him in and warm him up. The queen tells him only those who work can eat so he must play for them. Written by Jon ReevesMore...

Window Water Baby Moving1959-08-02On a winter's day, a woman stretches near a window then sits in a bathtub of water. She's happy. Her lover is nearby; there are close ups of her face, her pregnant belly, and his hands caressing her. She gives birth: we see the crowning of the baby's head, then the birth itself; we watch a pair of hands tie off and cut the umbilical cord. With the help of the attending hands, the mother expels the placenta. The infant, a baby girl, nurses. We return from time to time to the bath scene. By the end, dad's excited; mother and daughter rest. Preserved by the Academy Film Archive in 2013.More...
