Reviews
Gopher Goofy
This is one of McCabe's more enjoyable efforts--even though it barely rises above the "curio" level. I like the fat guy--he almost resembles a Don Martin character.
McCabe's sympathy always remains with these little critters that populate his cartoons--even if they're destructive. The two gophers here are nice and offbeat, especially the obese Virgil, whose catch-phrase is, "Duh.....But I like Central Park better."
