Soyuzmultfilm does not cease to amaze and delight with its kind and instructive ribbons. Among these creations can be safely attributed a cartoon about a hippo and compote. Before moving on to the discussion, you should familiarize yourself with it.
About the plot
This cartoon is about a hippo, a blueberry pie and a jug of compote, as well as very cunning mice who “borrowed” their favorite hippo treats. But first things first.
Hippopotamus lived for pleasure in a cozy house where the main piece of furniture was a refrigerator.
The peculiarity of this unit was that it was always possible to find blueberry pie and a compote jug there. This was infinitely glad its owner. After a busy day, the hippopotamus had a tradition to taste his favorite treats. But once, when he arrived home after work (and he worked as a pilot) and looked into the refrigerator, the hard worker-pilot discovered that there was no trace of his favorite treats. Wherever the hippo did not look for the disappeared dishes, both in the volcano and in the swamp, but found where he did not expect. It turned out that the enterprising mice, while the owner was not at home, were taken away and almost managed to eat the whole pie and drink the compote.
At first, the hippo became angry, but then, finding out the reason for such an act, he felt emotion and forgave the thieves.
The whole point was that just on that very day was the name day of the smallest of them - Fedot. Therefore, the mouse and decided to "lend" goodies. The hippo did not scold the mischievous, but decided to join them in order to celebrate their birthday together. It all ended happily with songs and dances.
Impression
A cartoon about a hippo, a blueberry pie and a jug of compote from the first instant captivates with the motive of its song. For a long time after viewing, a familiar melody still plays in my head, especially since it is very simple and is remembered literally right away. I also want to note the work of animators. The cartoon came out bright, but at the same time there are no superfluous, distracting moments from the essence, the colors are nice, the characters are beautiful.
The duration of the tape is short, only about 2 minutes 30 seconds. In addition, a moral component is useful for children, the main idea of which is “it is not worth taking someone else’s without permission so that there are no problems later”, because the hippopotamus could react differently. But in this story, everything ends well.
