In this specially curated package of vintage family-friendly cartoons from the 1920s and 30s by animation pioneer Max Fleischer, the emphasis is on love and romance. Featuring Betty Boop & Bimbo the dog, Popeye the Sailor Man and what is probably the first ever instance of the “moonwalk” move that would become Michael Jackson’s signature move. Newly restored in high definition, these cartoons will look beautiful on the big screen!
