Raggedy Ann and Raggedy Andy in the Pumpkin Who Couldn't Smile (1979)

Review by ja_kitty_71

Raggedy Ann and Raggedy Andy in the Pumpkin Who Couldn't Smile

10/10

An animated Halloween special made by Chuck Jones

Now here's a Halloween special I'd forgotten about until I saw it on YouTube. It is an animated Halloween special made by Chuck Jones, starring Raggedy Ann, Andy, and their dog, Raggedy Arthur. The show starts with a gloomy pumpkin crying forlornly about being left out on Halloween. Meanwhile, in the neighbourhood below the hill, Raggedy Ann and Raggedy Andy watch from their window a sad little boy named Ralph, who lives across the road from their house with his cold-hearted Aunt Agatha, who does not think trick-or-treating on Halloween is fun at all!

Feeling sorry for young Ralph, Ann and Andy thought a Jack-o-lantern would cheer him up. So, with Arthur and his skateboard and a flashlight (for the pumpkin), the three ragdolls headed for the pumpkin patch. And, sherluck, they had found the gloomy pumpkin, and when Ann told the pumpkin that he would make Ralph happy, a smile came across his face.

I kind of like the scene where the pumpkin on the skateboard speeds down the hill with Raggedy Ann, Andy, and Arthur trailing behind. Chuck Jones is awesome! The subtle details in the expressions of the characters are just genius-a reason I love animation by Chuck Jones. I watched this special again on YouTube, and I love this cartoon! It's so rare, such a classic, and a real heart warmer around Halloween time.
