Production notes
Silent film.
Generally considered to be the first animated cartoon (i.e. film containing drawn animation), it contains all the elements of a fully animated short, but it has no real narrative content.

Reviews
Humorous Phases of Funny Faces
I have seen the cartoon, and for the first animation produced, I'd say if the modern people did the effort they did on Humorous Phazes of Funny Faces AND without the knowledge, we'd probably still be getting the same quality...If any of this makes any sence to you...:P
