Good Will to Men (1955)
The Citizen Kane of cartoon shorts.

I watched this cartoon when I was 10 years old. I would rate this film as one of the greatest short cartoons ever made. It was the only animated short ever nominated for the Nobel Peace prize.
Originally it was titled "Good Will to Men". Probably one of the most effective pieces of cartoon ever made. Since it was created in 1939, it is a nice contrast to the Pro-War propaganda films of the same era.
I would rate this "short" as being on par with such classics as "one froggy evening" for its historical significance.
This newer version was released in 1955 and was nominated for the Best Short Subjects Oscar.
