edmund p https://letterboxd.com/edmundpoliks/film/gerald-mcboing-boing/ Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member It's a really cute story with a very 50s style Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/16/23 Full Review Audience Member This Oscar winning animated short from 1950 was the introduction of the character Gerald McBoing-Boing. He would star in a couple more shorts and then in his own tv series. Dr. Seuss wrote the rhyming story. Gerald can only make sounds. A tale of onomatopoeia. The animation style is a great example of its era. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/01/23 Full Review Read all reviews
