Cured Duck

This is another hilarious Donald Duck cartoon, where Donald attempts to control his temper after trashing Daisy's house as a result of not being able to open her living room window for her. Daisy promises not to see him again until he cures his temper.

The laughs piles as Donald orders a machine that hurls insult after insult to him and will declare Donald cured if he can endure the machine for 10 minutes without losing his temper. What results are classic slapstick humor and gags one after the other, from Donald getting his ears blasted with loud noise to him being socked in the face. Him trashing Daisy's house was also hilarious.

Daisy also gets a little temper-tantrum as well - very funny as she quarrels with Donald. Funny stuff here - one of the best Donald and Daisy cartoons!

A Walt Disney DONALD DUCK Cartoon

Daisy demands that Donald become a CURED DUCK - cured of his ungovernable temper if he wishes to keep seeing her.

Any cartoon which has Donald's rages as its main theme has got to be funny, and this one certainly is. The Insult Machine (from the Tootsberry Institute of Temperism) is an inspired creation and worth of inclusion in the Duck's classic MODERN INVENTIONS (1937). Big Roy Williams, later one of the adult members of The Mickey Mouse Club on TV, scripted this film. Clarence Nash gives Donald his unique voice.

Walt Disney (1901-1966) was always intrigued by pictures & drawings. As a lad in Marceline, Missouri, he sketched farm animals on scraps of paper; later, as an ambulance driver in France during the First World War, he drew comic figures on the sides of his vehicle. Back in Kansas City, along with artist Ub Iwerks, Walt developed a primitive animation studio that provided animated commercials and tiny cartoons for the local movie theaters. Always the innovator, his ALICE IN CARTOONLAND series broke ground in placing a live figure in a cartoon universe. Business reversals sent Disney & Iwerks to Hollywood in 1923, where Walt's older brother Roy became his lifelong business manager & counselor. When a mildly successful series with Oswald The Lucky Rabbit was snatched away by the distributor, the character of Mickey Mouse sprung into Walt's imagination, ensuring Disney's immortality. The happy arrival of sound technology made Mickey's screen debut, STEAMBOAT WILLIE (1928), a tremendous audience success with its use of synchronized music. The SILLY SYMPHONIES soon appeared, and Walt's growing crew of marvelously talented animators were quickly conquering new territory with full color, illusions of depth and radical advancements in personality development, an arena in which Walt's genius was unbeatable. Mickey's feisty, naughty behavior had captured millions of fans, but he was soon to be joined by other animated companions: temperamental Donald Duck, intellectually-challenged Goofy and energetic Pluto. All this was in preparation for Walt's grandest dream - feature length animated films. Against a storm of doomsayers, Walt persevered and over the next decades delighted children of all ages with the adventures of Snow White, Pinocchio, Dumbo, Bambi & Peter Pan. Walt never forgot that his fortunes were all started by a mouse, or that childlike simplicity of message and lots of hard work always pay off.

If you see it as one of Donald Duck cartoons, yes, it is more than nice. If you discover it as a reasonable reflection of couple relations, it is just brilliant. Short, a seductive short animation about temper, ladies, effort to be loved and not the best cure.

This is a good short it teaches a lesson on how to control ones temper,in this short donald plays a cartoon teenager called KATIE KA-BOOM but does not say i am not over reacting i am a teenager nor does he transform into a monster also there is a scene where donald drives through a garage and on top of the garage there was a sign saying ACME very odd since that can be found in warner brother cartoons.

Donald is on his way to Daisy, which occured a temper problem, which Donald manage to change his temper to have good spirits, which Daisy lost her temper in all of a sudden, seemed nice to see Donald in good temper, but seemed unpleasant in the end. Not really good one...
