Popeye and Dad Causing Trouble

Poopdeck Pappy (1940)

*** (out of 4)

Popeye tells his father that he's old and needs to slow down a bit. The old man says he's as young as his son so the two hit the town and trouble follows.

POOPDECK PAPPY is a pretty good entry for the series as it features Popeye at his best and the father character is also pretty good. This year saw a couple different shorts with the father character so obviously people of that time must have enjoyed it. This one here is pretty funny as the two get into some nice fights as the old man tries to pick up some ladies. As usual the animation is nice and there's no question that it moves at a very good pace.

Trivia
Some of the background patrons are drawn like speakeasy clientele from the Prohibition years, but the dancing dame is pure 1940, down to her drawn on beauty mark and emotions. A lady was never seen barefoot in public, unless at the beach.
