John Halas Remembered: an animator ahead of his time (1912-1995)
A newly-updated version of the documentary about John Halas, the Hungarian-Jewish emigre who became the father of British Animation. This new version was made to coincide with the 75th anniversary of the founding of Halas & Batchelor on 18th May 1940.
John is a key figure in British cinema and his contribution goes far beyond making "Animal Farm" in 1954, Britain's first animated feature-film. He produced more than 2,000 films between 1938 and 1995, launched the careers of hundreds of British animators and was a visionary who wanted to create a post-War Utopia through Socialism, animation and international understanding. The film was made to coincide with the centenary of his birth on 12 A...

very hard to call this a 'child's film', to be honest. I wouldn't let any kids watch it unless they're older or teenagers.
We found the head PIG and his 3 successors🐗 🐷 🐽 🐖 - thank you history books! 🥳
BeeYOOOOOtiful!
I doubt children, and too many adults properly realize the allegory, and fewer the message.
First and great cartoon
I prefer the book
John 3:16 For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten Son that whomsoever believes in him shall not perish but have everlasting life.
"You'll love Boxer, who gets turned into glue."
The Dog and the Billy goat
This is not a kid-friendly cartoon
2:15 This one looks fine. feels good to. Wait till she stands up that’s the crunch. 2:22 Help! 3:43 🤣Ouch!
Excellent choice, Kenji. Especially with your adult behavior.
I love how instead of "big brother is watching you" from 1984, its "pig brother is watching you"

0:27 it’s Casper’s old theme song from 1948
I think the snowball scene would be enough to send a child to the mental institution let alone the CAT SCENE
Good anti socialism/communism movie/tale. As important now as it was in the last century. Same goes for Brave New World and 1984. Everyone should see this movies or read the books, especially kids these days.
It's more about political corruption in general. It's not anti-socialist since the initial rebellion is portrayed in a heroic light and it's only after Napoleon's power grab that things get worse.
George Orwell, the author of the novel, was a socialist. The point of the story is how any political ideology can be corrupted, even if you would otherwise agree with it.
So no one falls for incorrect info: "In a letter to Yvonne Davet, Orwell described Animal Farm as a satirical tale against Stalin ("un conte satirique contre Staline"),[7] and in his essay "Why I Write" (1946), wrote that Animal Farm was the first book in which he tried, with full consciousness of what he was doing, "to fuse political purpose and artistic purpose into one whole". Trotsky supported Permanent Revolution (just as Snowball advocated overthrowing other farm owners), while Stalin supported socialism in one country (similar to Napoleon's idea of teaching the animals to use firearms, instead). When it seems Snowball will win the election for his plans, Napoleon calls in the dogs he has raised to chase Snowball from the farm. This is the first time the dogs have been seen since Napoleon took them in and raised them to act as his secret police, something irl Napoleon didn't do. Napoleon could be ruthless & an egomaniac, but he wasn't cruel sadistic secret police Stalin & he did bring positivities. Orwell's animal farm, the basis of the movie, has a pig called Napoleon, believed to be more as a comparision/allegory of Stalin as a fat pig "indistinguishable to a man" at the end & similair to Napoleon in tyranny. This ain't theory, we know it's about the Russian revolution, & from that we can tell the pig is a mockery of Stalin. Orwell was, unfortunately, a social democrat, & a harsh anti-communist & anti-stalinist. Now for those who don't get it, communism = violent, r@pey revolution by usually an egomaniac minority & social democrat = crazy socialism, but atleast democratic & voluntary.
Cool 🧸🧸🧸🧸🧸
did they ever say the goats name once in the movie? LOL were they that pressed for characters? this trailer really doesn't sell what a good film it is
Brits takes offense at our dollars signs? Those ungrateful bastards! it was our dollars that bought their weapons and saved their asses from Hitler! And, rebuilt their country after WWII.
🇷🇺 napoleon 🐷🐖🐖🐖👎👎👎
🐷 napoleon 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
👍👍👍
Fun fact you searched for this like I did. Lol
I watched this with my 4th grade class.
Good.
I never used this manual.
"All animals are equal, but some are more equal than others"
Jus tfinnished reading the book. Very good story
@Vivien Halas,Thank you for posting this incredible work of art here. Your mother and father were extremely talented artists and produced some truly outstanding animation. The level of imagination and creativity put into this is fantastic. It’s a symphony for the eyes and ears as well as the soul. It’s sad that out here in the United States most people only remember Halas and Batchelor for “Animal Farm” and “DoDo,The Kid from Outer Space”. It’s great that RUclips exists and makes it possible to see masterpieces like this.
i'm still not going vegan
i may eat hamburgers🍔, cheeseburgers🍔, chicken nuggets🐔, chicken tenders🐔, chicken strips🐔, popcorn chicken🐔, chicken patties🐔, hot dogs🌭and sausage on my pizza 🍕but i would never eat any other animal
Well, the author of this did say vegetarians were a load of cranks, so good idea.
Life isnt suitable for every child. End it before its begun .
fucking you tube charging for a 70 year old movie?? fucking nuts. need to animal farm you tube!! besides everyone has read the book if they want to see the friggen movie. same damn result.
I hsd this stroy on my book wth the song and every one was laughing of one letter pussy ca- they were dirty minded even i was rolling on my bench
Wasn't Thok Søndergaard the paper sculptor also involved in this? I read thst he along with Halas were directors of these shorts...but no mention of him here at all.
Snowball who is hounded out of his animal kingdom....and outright slaughtered offscreen
Remember, kids, this ain’t Old McDonald.
yeah because in this film old mcdonald has drunk way to much schnapps😂
How communism fails
Welcome to Illinois
All these people thinking this isn't a family film. The U rating for "very mild violence and intense moments" would like a word... Although saying that, we only moved Watership Down from U to PG this year!
This film recently got a G rating..
Always has been a U (UK's equivalent of a G rating), even since its release in 1954.
This is the only RUclips video I've ever watched which had a warning pop up about "inappropriate content". I cannot for the life of me understand why. Very odd.
Yeah, I noticed that too and to be honest it made me laugh, even RUclips have a dirty mind.
"It's a film that every child can enjoy" Watched this when I was a kid, bro when Snowball died I was screaming and crying like-
Is he dead? There are several theatrical adaptations, and it's never truly revealed what happened to Snowball in the end. Guess only Orwell knows by now.
@@GM-yc9yq The film makes it more explicit that Snowball died compared to the book. The death is not shown on screen, but we hear him squeal in the distance as the dogs chase him, then suddenly go quiet as Moses the raven slowly flies toward him.
@@ernovincze2900 True thing, after watching the scene again I do indeed see signs pointing at his death.
@@GM-yc9yqhe is based on a real life person I think named Trotsky who was exiled from the Soviet Union and was later killed so it’s safe to say snowball likely died off screen
Imo every kid should watch this. Shows the dangers of communism/socialism.
I feel embarrassed about not knowing of this til now. I was big on indy animation festivals in the 80s & 90s.
Yep
I laughed but then when I played it my mum got all happy and said ” OH I SANG THAT SONG FOR YOU AS A BABY. Don’t you remember?!” Me- 😂😂😂😂😂
Not all humans are bad and not all animals are good.
In the movie i wouldn't make a difference as its not about animals or humans, it's just about communism and revolution and how communism starts as freeing and empowering the slaves/workers and giving them power and try to make them equal just to become the new almighty and gruesome dictators. Power corrupts and the most well ment ideologies can become the most evil.
The film was rated X in the 1950s, yet the trailer said, children can watch. Perhaps, it wasn't to promote communism or socialism to the capitalist west.
Los docentes deben enseñar esta lectura, para acabar con la farsa y manupulacion que desgraciadamente esta haciendo caer a paises hispanoamericanos en dictaduras SOCIILISTAS /COMUNUSTAS, COMO VENEZUELA, NICARAGUA, que siguen los pasos de la dictadura cubana, y que se está infiltrando en el alma mismo de EEUU.
