WALT DISNEY "SUSIE THE LITTLE BLUE COUPE" 1952 Cartoon

PUBLIC DOMAIN BAnumber1 Susie the Little Blue Coupe is an animated short film released theatrically by Walt Disney Studios on 6 June 1952. The 8 minute film was directed by Clyde Geronimi and based on an original short-story by Bill Peet, the story was adapted for the screen by Peet and Don DaGradi. The DVD release of The Love Bug featured this short as a special feature. Susie is a small blue coupé on display in a dealer showroom who is bought by a well-to-do man who is taken with her. Thrust into high-society, she finds herself surrounded by much larger, more luxurious cars but eventually makes do. She is pampered, but time takes its toll on her, mechanically and cosmetically; eventually, her owner trades her in. A second man buys her but her new life is much less pampered, being left her outside, in the cold and being poorly-maintained. One night, she is stolen, chased by the police and totaled in the resulting wreck. Rotting in a junkyard, all looks hopeless for Susie when a young man notices her, buys her, and completely restores and revives her into a brand new hotrod. Narrator: Sterling Holloway Other voices: Stan Freberg Susie: June Foray
