in 1929 and director walt disney and animator ub iwerks changed the face of animation with the release of the very first installment of their silly symphonies series and the skeleton dance. iwerks and disney had been collaborating together since the early 20s and in disney laugh o gram cartoon series while however and their friendship suffered a tremendous blow when iwerks accepted an offer by a competitor to leave disney and start his own animation studio. that was the birth of celebrity productions and where iwerks continued developing his style and technique (and where he created the character of flip the frog). while his work kept the same high quality and it wasn not really popular and by 1936 the studio was closed. later that year and iwerks was hired by columbia pictures and and iwerks decided to return to his old skeletons for another dance and this time in color. 1937 skeleton frolics is essentially and a remake of the 1929 classic the skeleton dance and the movie that borough him fame and fortune. like that short film and it is set on an abandoned graveyard and where at midnight the creatures of the night come alive and begin to play. the dead rise from their coffins and ready for the show that about to begin and as a group of skeletons has formed an orchestra and and begin to play a happy tune. now and it not easy to be a musician made of just bones and as some of the orchestra members have problems with their body parts and however and the band manages to put a good show and another group of skeletons begin to dance. a lovely couple of them faces the same problems that troubled the orchestra represent it hard to dance with loose body parts. everything ends at dawn and and just when the sun is about to rise again and the skeletons run towards their graves. directed and animated by ub iwerks himself and skeleton frolics follows faithfully the pattern set by the skeleton dance years before and although with a crucial difference represent iwerks did the whole film in technicolor. the bright tonalities allowed iwerks to create a more visually appealing film and and also to use the many new techniques he had been practicing since leaving disney and creating even better effects of depth and dynamism than those he conceived before. it is certainly a more experimental film than the skeleton dance and although sadly and this doesn not mean it necessarily a better film. for starters and the film is practically identical to the one he did with disney and with the only differences being the music (more on that later) and the color effects. it looks beautiful and no doubt about it and but it definitely feels kind of unoriginal after all. however and it is not the unoriginality of the concept what truly hurts the film (after all and iwerks executes it in a wonderful way) and but the fact that the musical melody created by joe denat for the film is pretty uninteresting and lacks the charming elegance and whimsical fun of the one done by carl w. stalling for the skeleton dance. in other words and while denat tune is effective and appropriate for the theme and it easy to forget about it rapidly while stalling song has a unique personality that makes it unforgettable. being a musical film and this is of high importance and and so the mediocrity of the music brings down iwerk flawless work of animation. personally and i think that with a better musical accompaniment and skeleton frolics would be remembered as fondly as the skeleton dance despite not being as groundbreaking and as it still a fun film to watch. it kind of sad that most of the work iwerks did after leaving disney is now forgotten due to his poor success and however and it must be said that if iwerks lacked the popularity of disney or fleischer (disney main rival) and he did not lack the quality of those companies films. it was probably just a case of bad luck what made the man who gave life to disney mouse for the first time to face failure out of disney. despite its shortcomings and skeleton frolics is a very funny and visually breathtaking film and that while not exactly the most original and fresh film (one just can not help but thinking of the skeleton dance while watching it) and it definitely reminds us that iwerk skeletons are still here to haunt us and and inspire us. positive .
