July Days

As the kids are all riding about on cool scooters which are sail powered, Mickey gets distracted by Mary, the new girl. He's smitten and tries very hard to impress her. But Mickey is a wimp and even Mary's little brother, Jackie , as well as Farina push Mickey around in this film. To impress her, he has hid friend make him a suit of armor...and somehow this gives Mickey the courage he needs to not only stand up for himself but impress the girl.

This is an unusual Our Gang film because it seems to rely much less on gags and laughs and more on Mickey and his life saga! I didn't mind this...and the short film is well worth seeing.
