Mickey wants to take Minnie to a dance, but Pete's flashy car beats Mickey's horse-drawn wagon as her transportation of choice. At the dance, Mickey uses some balloons to make himself light on his feet- the perfect dancing partner- but this doesn't keep Minnie at his side for long, either

Production notes
The release date noted above reflects the release date as currently acknowledged by the Walt Disney Company. Other sources- including some official Walt Disney Studios archival documentation- suggest November 25, 1928 as an alternate (and possibly more accurate!) release date. The reason for the release date ping-pong? The Walt Disney Company was a bit late in registering the copyrights on some of the early films.

The Barn Dance
Minnie's a fickle one, for sure. She gives Mickey the air twice here, once blowing him off for Pete over who has the "sweeter ride" and later because Pete's a better dancer and shows up Mickey's trick dancing...tsk tsk, when will Mickey learn. Great cartoon barnyard extras at the dance. Love the goat, pig and dachshund band and all the other dancers.
