When Magoo Flew	comment	When Magoo Flew is a 1954 animated short film produced by United Productions of America and directed by Pete Burness.It stars, you guessed it, Mr. Magoo. In this cartoon, Magoo, voiced as usual by Jim Backus, goes out to see a movie, specifically a 3-D Movie. Magoo, being basically blind, walks right past the movie theater and instead winds up at the airport. He gets a "ticket" from a guess-your-weight machine and blunders his way onto a plane, still thinking that he's in a movie theater. A Real Life drama then plays out as Magoo finds himself sitting next to a bank robber.The title was later borrowed for a book about the history of UPA itself.

When Magoo Flew / int_dc579c91	comment	Contrived Coincidence: This is how Mr. Magoo manages to get on a flight despite not having a ticket. He boards the plane thinking it's a movieplex and tells the stewardess "orchestra," meaning the orchestra section of a theater...and just so happens to be standing among members of an actual orchestra. The stewardess naturally thinks he's declaring that he's part of the group and waves him aboard.
