Released in 1946, Make Mine Musicnote occasionally formatted as Make Mine Music! is the 8th film in the Disney Animated Canon.In light of World War II, a large portion of Disney's animators were drafted. In order to keep making movies, Disney had to settle with releasing package films. Make Mine Music is the first of these films (Although Saludos Amigos and The Three Caballeros can be included too, they were a product of the government wanting to make friends with South America, not because of a lack of animators.) Unlike most other Disney animated features from before the age of home video, this was never given a theatrical re-release. Sometimes, however, the individual segments were each tacked onto another Disney release. It is also the last one from Walt Disney's lifetime to be released on home video, and the only one absent from Disney+.note Once Disney+ added Tarzan in June 2020 and Ralph Breaks the Internet in December 2020, Make Mine Music became the only Disney Animated Canon movie, among those released before Disney+'s launch, absent from the service. Although, some clips from the "Blue Bayou" segment appear as part of an episode of Zenimation.As the name implies, the movie is a music-based Animated Anthology in a similar vein to Fantasia, divided into 10 separate shorts. As with many of the Disney package films of this period, the segments would occasionally be aired separately as part of various Disney anthology TV shows in the 80s and 90s. The shorts that comprise the film consist of the following: The Martins and the Coys: "A rustic ballad" about two Feuding Families, the Martins and the Coys, whose feud eventually kills all but one member of each family, Gracie Martin and Henry Coy. The two survivors fall in love. Blue Bayou is an unused Fantasia segment, originally set to Claude Debussy's Clair de Lune.( The unabridged Clair de Lune version was eventually restored as a separate short.) All the Cats Join In is about a group of teenagers, or "hep cats," who get together at the local malt shop and dance around. Most of the scenery and characters are drawn by an artist with a pencil, in a similar style to Aquarela do Brasil from Saludos Amigos Without You is a song about lost love, with accompanying visuals. The lovers in question are never shown. Casey at the Bat is the classic story of the over-confident all-star. Two Silhouettes features two live-action silhouettes dancing to ballet music. Dinah Shore performed the song. Peter and the Wolf is an adaptation of the composition about a young boy who sets out to kill the local wolf. After You've Gone is about a set of musical instruments that come to life and begin dancing. Johnnie Fedora and Alice Blue Bonnet is the story of two love-struck hats in a department store that become separated when Alice is purchased. The Whale Who Wanted To Sing At the Met is about an incredibly gifted whale named Willie, that can not only sing Opera, but sing in three distinct voices at once thanks to his three uvulas. When he hears impresario Tetti-Tatti note a play on the name of Metropolitan Opera general manager Giulio Gatti-Cassazza is searching for him, he eagerly jumps at the call, unaware that Tetti-Tatti is actually hunting him because he thinks Willie has swallowed an undiscovered opera singer as opposed to being the singer.

Poor Communication Kills: Literally. If only Willie had been able to talk to Tetti-Tatti, the impresario wouldn't have killed him in a misguided attempt to "rescue" the opera singers he believed the whale had swallowed.

Surprisingly Happy Ending
 Make Mine Music / int_25b4ad2f
comment
Surprisingly Happy Ending: At first it seems that Peter and the Wolf will end with a Bittersweet Ending since although the wolf has been caught, Sasha is unable to enjoy the victory due to being too distraught by Sonia's apparent death at the hands of the wolf. Only it turns out that Sonia wasn't eaten alive by the wolf and was in fact hiding within the hollow trunk of a tree the entire time. As soon as Sonia reveals herself to be alive and well, Sasha gleefully embraces her and the segment ends with the two avians rushing off to join in the celebration of Peter's victory over the wolf.

Downer Ending: Two shorts end on a bad note for the protagonist, though of the Played for Laughs sort. Casey At The Bat ends on one. "There is no joy in Mudville. For Mighty Casey has struck out." Though there is a sequel short that gives Casey a happy ending. Willie the opera-singing whale who is harpooned to death by Tetti-Tatti. Because this is the final segment of the movie, it could be seen as one for the movie as a whole, although it is more of a Bittersweet Ending, as we see the whale has gone onto heaven, still singing.

Disneyfication: The story of Peter and the Wolf is changed around a bit, giving names to the various characters among other things. Most significantly, the duck, which is devoured by the wolf in the original story, is alive and well at the end, being in hiding after the wolf attacks it. Downplayed for Casey at the Bat. While most of the climax (including the Downer Ending) is kept word-for-word, the earlier verses are rewritten to accompany more cartoony antics. A sung chorus is also added.

Disney Death: Despite Sonia's spirit entering the pearly gates; presumably this image is just Peter and friends' imagination. It's notable as being one of the earliest examples of the trope, following Snow White's and Pinocchio's, and possibly the first ever straight example of the trope, as both Snow White and Pinocchio were more or less dead and revived afterwards, whereas Sonia was alive the whole time. Peter gets this, too, although it doesn't last as long.

Animal Gender-Bender: While it’s unclear exactly what species of duck Sonia is supposed to be, her brightly colored feathers would be more expected on a male duck, the green coloration being reminiscent of a mallard duck. This despite being female, which would normally have duller gray or brown colors.

Word Salad Title: It's safe to say that Make Mine Music has confused a lot of kids, especially if they haven't yet learned alternate syntax and don't know that "mine" here is a pronoun, not an adjectival noun (i.e., "As for me, I'll take some music"). There have probably been a lot of mistaken notions that the title refers to making music while mining (which really is done in Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs!).

Sapient Cetaceans: The segment called "The Whale Who Wanted To Sing At the Met" is about a whale who was able to sing opera - in three different voices! - and whose big wish is to perform on the New York Metropolitan Opera. Unfortunately, he is killed by a misguided opera impresario who thought he was rescuing opera singers in the whale's belly.

Mood Whiplash: "The Whale That Wanted To Sing At The Met" has Willie meeting Tetti-Tatti's expedition and singing to them. Everybody is overjoyed and even sing along (and are occasionally punching Tetti-Tatti as he alone tries to shoot) and Willie is hired and is singing at the Met and getting magazine covers and first-page articles in newspapers... and then boom! Turns out that while everybody else was distracted with Willie's singing, Tetti-Tatti finally got a clear shot with his harpoon gun and shot him and is screaming a victorious "I got him! I got him!" while the other whalers are wrestling him to the ground and Willie is thrashing around in his death throes.

Mickey Mousing: Oddly, Peter And The Wolf spends the first two minutes explaining how this works, and which characters are represented by which instruments in case you didn't know, or couldn't figure it out by watching.note This is actually the standard for the piece, as it was created to introduce children to the instruments of the orchestra.

Everybody Cries: This trope is used twice during Peter and the Wolf. In the first instance, Peter, Ivan, and Sasha cry over Sonia's apparent demise at the hands of the wolf. In the second instance, Misha, Yasha, and Vladimir burst out crying when it briefly looks like Peter has been eaten by the wolf.

Inelegant Blubbering: In Peter and the Wolf, the hunters cry in this manner when they think that Peter has been killed by the wolf. In the ending of "Casey at the Bat," Casey also blubbers after striking out at a major baseball game. In "The Whale Who Wanted to Sing at the Met", Willie cries whale-sized tears while performing "Vesti la Giubba" from Pagliacci

Quaking with Fear: In "The Whale Who Wanted to Sing at the Met", as Willie performs as Mephistopheles in Gounod's Faust, the Firemen tremble before him. In "Casey at the Bat", just like in the original story, one of the pitchers trembles at the knees when he got nervous. In "Peter and the Wolf", the camera itself does this when the wolf snaps and snarls at the audience.
