GIDEON THE GREAT: THE FLYING ACE cover image
Gideon is told to rake up fall leaves but instead he spends all day imagining himself as a fighter pilot during WWII. This short is cute and has lots of small jokes that older teens and adults would find amusing. The animation is well done and the small actions of the characters are funny such as when Gideon has to attend his sister's tea party and the stuffed animals talk with lisps and British accents. Younger kids would be entertained by the adventures Gideon has fighting Warner Von Braun. Well produced, good audio, very good animation.
Through the mind of a young boy, Gideon, we will be reminded of the importance of daydreaming. The viewer is taken to a place and time that can only exist within the world of imagination. Watch as Gideon takes us on a fun and adventurous ride through the sky's battling the Red Baron.
