'Rip van Winkle' - 1950 Synopsis:
The nephews want to skate but Donald makes
them go down south with him. There they pull a
trick on their uncle making him believe that he
has slept for 20 years!
Comments:
This would constitute the ultimate in
cheating if Donald had really slept for 20 years.
Still, making him believe that his short nap
really lasted for that period of time is an
achievement in itself. Furthermore, during their
car trip back, the nephews succeed in making
Donald believe that the world has changed
considerably during his long 'absence'. The
nephews' clever actions work to perfection
despite several close encounters along the way.
In fact, Donald never even sees through the
nephews' cheating!
