Between 1959 and 1970, Rembrandt Films produced more than 50 cartoons, including Tom and Jerry for MGM/UA and Popeye for King Features. The company also produced its own theatrical shorts, which won five Academy Award nominations and one Oscar. This compilation includes: "Munro" - Written by Jules Feiffer, this Oscar-winner about a four-year-old boy inadvertently drafted by the United States Army is one of America's classic cartoons; "Frozen Logger" - Based on the song by Lee Hayes of the Weavers, a waitress falls in love with a fanciful woodsman who stirs his coffee with his thumb; "Self-Help Series" - Narrated by the sardonic Arthur Treacher, these cartoons--"Self Defense for Cowards," "How to Avoid Friendship," "How to Win on the Thruway," "How to Live with a Neurotic Dog"--help to humorously explore the contemporary human condition; "Anatole" - Rembrandt Films pioneered the animation of classic children's books. This is the cream of the crop, an adaptation of the book by Eve Titus; "Terrible Tessie," "Big Sam" and "Punky" - These series pilots have not been seen in more than three decades; "Three Nudnik Shorts" - Nudnik is Rembrandt Films' signature character, the star of the company's half-hour television series, "The Nudnick Show," airing in more than 20 countries.
