This cartoon short wasn't bad, following along with the tale well. The animation was pretty good and the story was a little exciting; makes you want to see how the king would get himself out of his gold fever.
The elf, who granted Midas the golden touch, didn't really give the king strong advice about the touch, only saying it would be a curse. The king, though, was a little too sappy.
The cartoon does give off a good moral, telling you not to be greedy but be grateful of what you have, and be careful in what you wish for.
Grade B-
It features King Midas, the greedy ruler of legend who craved gold and wishes for everything he touches to turn shiny and priceless. An elf called Goldie (gee, that's imaginative) appears and offers to make that wish come true. Midas enjoys it at first but soon comes to realize that the best things are life are those that you can touch and hold close to you. Or at least he would if the cartoon didn't just have him grow frustrated at not being able to eat dinner.
There is some nice animation in here, but overall it's forgettable. Respect Walt's wishes and skip it.
This Silly Symphony short is, as is ALWAYS the case with these shorts, brilliantly animated--with terrific backgrounds and ultra-vivid colors. It's the story of King Midas and his Golden Touch. But, unfortunately, the Disney folks decided to insert some sappy music--and the King singing "The Golden Touch, The Golden Touch" was pretty annoying. Once this stopped, however, the story was pretty decent and quite watchable. My only reservation about the story is the ending--as the original story told by the ancient Greeks was much darker (and therefore, cool).

Goldie: [laughs] Ah, is this the great man who bellowed, "Give me gold, not advice"?
King Midas: Goldie, Goldie. Help me, Goldie! Take away this golden curse. Don't let me starve. Take everything. My gold, my kingdom for a hamburger sandwich!
Goldie: With or without onions?
King Midas: Hamburger! Just plain old hamburger!
Goldie: Ha ha ha! Now thou art a wise and humble king. I will take back the golden touch in exchange for everything you possess. Toodle-oo.
