8 of the greatest cartoons on the big screen. These movies are mostly unavailable in DVD. Interesting commentary regarding the artists, studios and artistic styles. Recommended foe all ages.

This was an enjoyable event. I love The Alex Theatre. Great selection of the vintage cartoons that I grew up with. I will make it a point to return to 3rd annual screening. Thanks Goldstar!
