Donald Duck and the Gorilla
Directed by Jack King
Produced by Walt Disney Productions
A lighthearted, frenetic cartoon short built entirely on slapstick comedy and mistaken-identity gags, with Donald Duck caught between his nephews' prank and a real escaped gorilla.
Ajax the killer gorilla has escaped from the zoo. Donald's nephews dress up as a gorilla, but soon Donald encounters the real gorilla, and they chase each other until the radio broadcasts instructions for subduing Ajax.
