The New Neighbor
Sparks fly when Donald moves next door to Pete and his reckless dog.
Directed by Jack Hannah
Produced by Walt Disney Productions
A lighthearted animated slapstick comedy about escalating neighbor conflict, driven by physical gags and comedic chaos rather than warmth or depth.
Donald moves into a new home, and discovers his new neighbor is a slob, a mooch, and has a dog that comes crashing through the fence and digging in Donald's garden. Eventually it escalates into a full-scale war, with crowds cheering and TV coverage.
