The Biblical story of Noah's ark full of animals gets the Disney treatment in this animated short.
Walt Disney gives the Noah's ark story some fun treatment here as he and his sons have to construct and water-tight boat then populate it with a pair of just about everything from an aardvark to a zebra. A torrent ensues and Noah decides to have a dance to take everyone's mind of things - and that's when we get a niftily constructed ditty from "Harriet Hippo" warning never to mention thermidor to a lobster. Then the rain stops and Mount Ararat beckons. The subject matter gives the animators pretty much carte blanche to use everything from a clothes peg to a ball of cotton wool to represent the construction, effective storm sequence and finally the creatures who make the journey. The whole thing is sung in rhyme, and for the most part that works quite well delivering an engagingly jolly representation of the old testament tale of God when he is a bit narked. Curious they all seem to have made it home afterwards, too!
It's the end of the world. A flood is coming. Luckily for Dave and his son Finny, a couple of clumsy Nestrians, an Ark has been built to save all animals. But as it turns out, Nestrians aren't allowed. Sneaking on board with the involuntary help of Hazel and her daughter Leah, two Grymps, they think they're safe. Until the curious kids fall off the Ark. Now Finny and Leah struggle to survive the flood and hungry predators and attempt to reach the top of a mountain, while Dave and Hazel must put aside their differences, turn the Ark around and save their kids. It's definitely not going to be smooth sailing.
