One Froggy Evening

One Froggy Evening is an animated short film released on December 31, 1955. It is regarded as one of the finest cartoons ever made. Steven Spielberg called One Froggy Evening 'the Citizen Kane of animated film.'

In 1994 it was voted #5 of the 50 Greatest Cartoons of all time by members of the animation field. The film is ranked at IMDb as the fourth best short movie ever. In 2003 the United States Library of Congress deemed the film 'culturally significant' and selected it for preservation in the National Film Registry.

If that frog was sealed up in that corner stone in 1892, how would he know those songs that were written after that date? :-)
