FELIX THE CAT UNCLE TOM'S CRABBIN

A Yeti in the snow. Felix with knapsack journeying through the snow. He arrives amongst sunny fields of sunflowers. Uncle Tom is playing the banjo and his child is dancing. Felix joins in. The music wakes an angry man (dressed like a ring master). He uses his whip to break the banjo and threaten uncle Tom. Mammy is cooking pancakes. Felix turns her frying pan into a banjo using his whiskers as strings. The family dance again. The angry man chases them and Felix turns the banjo into a unicycle to escape. The man throws stones, but Felix turns the banjo into a tennis racket and hits them back. A little girl gives Felix her hair bow which turns into a propeller to lift him into the sky. The man turns his whip into a stair case and then into a dog to try and catch him. They chase and fight, but the dog turns back into the whip. It begins to snow.

BRITISH PATHÉ'S STORY
Before television, people came to movie theatres to watch the news. British Pathé was at the forefront of cinematic journalism, blending information with entertainment to popular effect. Over the course of a century, it documented everything from major armed conflicts and seismic political crises to the curious hobbies and eccentric lives of ordinary people. If it happened, British Pathé filmed it.

Now considered to be the finest newsreel archive in the world, British Pathé is a treasure trove of 85,000 films unrivalled in their historical and cultural significance.

British Pathé also represents the Reuters historical collection, which includes more than 136,000 items from the news agencies Gaumont Graphic (19101932), Empire News Bulletin (19261930), British Paramount (19311957), and Gaumont British (19341959), as well as Visnews content from 1957 to the end of 1984.
