The Little Whirlwind
Mickey tries to clean Minnie's yard despite a playful whirlwind.
Directed by Riley Thomson
Produced by Walt Disney Productions
A lighthearted, slapstick-driven cartoon where Mickey's well-intentioned yard work is hilariously undone by mischievous tornadoes, built entirely on physical comedy and charm.
Mickey wants some of the cake Minnie has just baked, so he offers to clean up her yard. As he's working, a tiny tornado (smaller than him) with a mind of its own comes along and causes trouble. After Mickey finally chases the little twister off, it gets its big brother, which makes a grand mess of the yard. Most of the cartoon, except for the opening and closing, has no dialogue.
