Alice's Mysterious Mystery (1926) ****

Felix Dopes It Out (1925) ****
Directed by Otto Messmer and produced by Pat Sullivan. Felix sails to the South Sea to find a cure for a red nose, encountering garlic-hating sharks and baseball-playing monkeys.
Alice The Toreador (1925) ***
Alice wants to become a bullfighter, but she's revealed as a fraud when her bull turns out to be a cat in disguise! Quite uneven (the best scene involves a cat smuggling his kittens across the fence), but the mix of real-life Alice and animated cartoon characters works extremely well.
Alice's Egg Plant (1925) ***
Alice Cans The Cannibals (1925) ***
Typical Alice cartoon. The first half is very inventive and exciting.

Alice And The Dog Catcher (1924) ***
Closer in spirit to contemporary "Our Gang" comedies than to the other Disney's "Alice In Cartoonland" films. But quite fun, both the animated and the live-action sequences. Very politically incorrect by today's standards, although its KKK gags could be seen as poking fun at the Ku Klux Klan, rather than being racist (the main gag being that the kids form a Klan-like organization, but allow a black kid to join).
