Animated Cartoon Oscar Winner in 1940 – The Milky Way

May 10, 2008 · Filed Under Animation Award Winners, DVD, Oscar Winners 

Here’s a huge dose of cuteness from Warner Brothers. “The Milky Way” was the first animated cartoon not made by Disney to win an Academy award. The story is based on a nursery rhyme classic about the three little kittens who lost their mittens. As you watch this notice the masterful use of squash and stretch. This cartoon and other classics are available on DVD in the Warner Brothers Academy Award Collection.

    “Here’s a huge dose of cuteness from Warner Brothers.”

    But it’s not from Warner Bros. It’s an MGM cartoon.
