Moth and the Flame - Silly Symphony Walt Disney (1938) complete

- A swarm of moths tear into "Ye Olde Costume Shop" as one pretty girl moth is beguiled by a hypnotic candle flame. The male moth ignores his lady to chow down on a hat. He notices her trapped in a spider web with the fire attacking and makes some attempts to save her. The Moth and the Flame is a Silly Symphony that debuted on April 1, 1938. Most of the time, the flame is a caricature of a Latin lover. But for a few seconds at one time, it takes on the caricatured appearance of Walt Disney. This is a beautiful classic silly symphony cartoon that's almost forgotten. I hope you like it.

Let's see...
"Playing with fire can get you burned"
"Don't tempt fate"
"Flew too close to the sun"
"Only YOU can prevent house fires"
"Put out your damn candle when you aren't using it or it'll come to life and set your stuff ablaze"
mind as well be walkin on the sun!
That classic Disney animation. There's nothing like it.
I had never seen this silly symphony before and believe me that is saying something! It’s absolutely sweet. I just love it.

These wonderful cartoons used to be featured on the Disney Channel in the 80s. We have a VHS tape where we recorded some hours of it. This was one of the shorts on it. For some reason the part where the mask's face melted and turned from happy to sad always stuck with me.
Disney channel was available in the 80s????
@@-i_own_you_- in Dec '86.
Funny...I was sitting here and had a flash back of that face and couldn't remember what it was from and been looking for about an hour now and searched for disney cartoon fire scenes and some how this popped up and it all came rushing back when I seen the name and the first few seconds and it all came back from 30 years ago. Glad I found it or I wouldn't have slept tonight...lol Also the flame turning blue was the other flash back but couldn't remember.
@@-i_own_you_- Uncle had satellite and used to record them for the kids at that time.
🤟🤟
All these lovely expressions are missed in new cartoons
I don't think so...
That candle flame was extremely persistent! 🔥 Those poor moths! 🦋
And very stupid, look around him, everything here is flammable and he could duplicate himself more before the moths overwhelmed him.
Nah... the poor shop owner.
Beautiful 🦋❤

It'll be just hilariously priceless to see the shocked look upon the shopkeeper's face as he sees his store and clothes all ruined 😄
Agreed
Kelsey Haight He should’ve fixed that hole in the window then!

not to mention the water and fire damage lol
I remember this silly symphony and it teaches about temptation.
Always glad to learn about new stuff from Cuphead.
Yes
The detail that went into these little cartoons is amazing.
I don´t know if it was just me, but as a (little) child I had a kind of impression that in a number of their old shorts Disney seemed to love burning butts form characters of theirs; probably not so "fashionable" nowadays... This moth, some gang in a western Mickey short, and even the main characters (Donald, Pluto, Goofy and Mickey himself) they all went at some moment through that harrowing experience. Those scenes impacted me as a child a great deal.
I feel bad for the guy who has to come back to his house full of moths,things are burnt and water is everything.
I too once almost burnt down a building trying to catch a sexy bug
Makes me think this is what happens when you mess with fire. Jealousy is a problem even in our society today.
Never saw this one before, the details on the flames is amazing!
The Female Moth Is An Big Inspiration To Cala Maria's Facial Features
Sydney Hamilton that’s what brought me here 😂
Who’s Cala Maria?
@@sammey3998 is a boss in a video game called cuphead
Camila Carla oooh thx
Call Maria mermaid of the sea-ah
i cant believe this is from 1938 . I just had a random memory of watching this and looked it up 😂😂
Fire Safety Rule #1: NEVER play around with 🔥.
also don't throw water on any type of gasoline, it will spread it rather than dose it out
Amination is amazing Disney had some of best at that time
Indeed, how I miss 2D animation.
I miss these little cartoons. They were so creative, hilarious and sometimes terrifying. God i feel old now ;-;
You're not the only one who feels that way.
that's a sexy bug
Especially at 3:47-3:56.
"OH NO! MY BUSINESS!"
-The owner
So ancient, but so enchanting!
No. Moth meets Light Bug from Cuphead
Walt cared about quality.
If only 2D animation could come back to Disney.
@@dreamguardian8320They were planning to do it but... Disney's actual CEO didn't let them 😭.
@@julyakacarrie6260 Not surprising.
The moth was a big inspiration to the light bug from Cuphead
Music in that fight is so good though
There are like 100 moths in this silly simphony so which one?
اانتي فتات
The Flame 🔥 has the HOTS for that Cute Moth quite Literally.
😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁
Yes
This was my favorite when I was a kid. Thank you so much for uploading this - it was such a gift to be able to see it again after all these decades!
Adorable!
Only the biggest Disney fans will say they’ve seen this! I’m shocked knowing that this is the first time I’m noticing this one exists. Shame that not ALL silly symphonies are streaming on Disney+. This and MusicLand being one of many Disney Shorts.
That flame got that fire rizz
I wonder what would the shops owner think when all clothes are eaten and everything completely burnt
اانتي فتات
i liked this toon so much!!!🕯🔥🎩
I love the amimation of the wings 😍
Beautiful masterpiece!!!!
Yes beautiful 🦋💋❤️
It's actually the moth caterpillars who eat things like wool. I like moths and think they're cute, but ended up with an infestation of pantry moths and had to put my foot down. They were eating paper towels and all kinds of odd stuff, no real damage but it got really annoying having moths and little caterpillars that looked like maggots everywhere.
am i the only one who felt really bad for the shopkeeper and annoyed at the moths for causing the destruction?
Such a creative cartoon, and with a nice ending :)
I never realized the girlfriend was portrayed as a cheater when she noticed the flame. She ought to be grateful her boyfriend didn't notice her dance moves towards the flame.
I think she was probably mocking the flame, maybe.
Either that, or the flame was literally hypnotic- at least until it tried aggressively to catch her and set everything on fire.
I think it's a spoof off the old line about how moths simply cannot resist the flickering glow of a fire. _Like a moth to the flame_ is a very old saying about following irresistible and foolish desires to one's detriment.
Cheater? Lol.. she wanted to cheat on him with fire? Why do people need to analyze everything, especially a cute and funny cartoon from the 1930s. 🤷🏻♀️
@@JMarieCAloveYes, yes she did.
Why do insecure people like yourself need to overreact over every little thing?
@@JMarieCAloveyou shouldn't oversimplify things. cartoons in that time were not exactly the same as today. this was 90 years ago. you should try to put it into perspective. a girl deliberately showing bare legs and underwear to a man (the flame)? it's a very strong sexual innuendo for 1938.
Imagine if this was Rarity's boutique. You would probably hear the scream in Saddle Arabia!
Or perhaps in the EG Human world
Saudia ?
@@ABOLLLLA theyre referring to the pony version!
I see the cult of cupheads have arrived...
This was made in 1938!
why are so many people thinking [as i've seen in the cookie carnival comments and the mad hatter [not disney] people instantly think... "oh they ripped off cuphead"
That Cuphead game took inspiration FROM these cartoons!
or do people seriously not believe that cartoons existed before 1990s or some crap?
So clever and beautifully drawn and animated.
How I miss 2D animation😢
Thank you man you are so great :D i was searching for it
For 7:45 mints, I time travelled through my childhood 🥰🥰
I wish I could find and still watch the VHS copy we had of this. Brings back memories of when my kids were little.
Thanks. 初めて目にしました。 感服です。
ITS THE BOSS FROM CUPHEAD
That was cute :)
تعليقك يذكرني بهاذه الحضه
That spider web surely would have had an arachnid waiting to wrap the moth up, ready for a light snack later on
Sometimes the CZcams algorithm can be a good thing.
How Romantic
Moth meets Light Bug from Cuphead
Great one and good one
Very good job dudes!! Congratulations 990.40% yo. Splendid! It'll be just hilariously priceless to see the shocked look upon the shopkeeper's face as he sees his store and clothes all ruined. 😄
I don't remember seeing this Disney cartoon, and I never had the Disney channel. Of course today the true Disney does not exist. Walt Disney and his authentic brand have been dead a long, long time.
He and his girlfriend made a cameo appearance in Hercules song I won't say I'm in love 💕 and Disney's house of mouse
Carino, ma non tra i miei preferiti. Spettacolare la fiamma! Che pacchianata quando si fanno gli elmetti! XD
This cartoon can be said the most hated, because the moths are the bad ones for entering the shop without permit, as well destroying products meant for customers.
And the flame should have think smart, he could have multiply himself since he left fires everywhere. Means he should able to make more helping hands since everything here is burnable.
I don't think the flame looked like Disney, Looked more like if Cab Calloway was a cartoon character and not just lip synched.
It does resemble King Dice (a character based directly off of Cab Calloway) quite a bit
Thanks for sharing 👍😊
I wonder what the heroine's name is? Marilyn Moth, maybe?
Super videos
am I suppose to rot for a kind of bugs that destroy fabrics and pretty clothes?😂😂😂
In reality, moths do not eat clothing, only their larva do
أريدك أن نتحد ونعيد الماضي اانتي فتات روسيه ام
AMAZING 🌟
Even the moths got a happy ending😅😂🎉
Perfect cartoon
Blue flame at 4:39
She's beautiful just like Megara
Moths always fly into the light bulbs that fry them
People are like that.. they always cling to someone that doesn't want them
It kind of reminds me of the light bug from cuphead
DLC
Beautiful moth girl 🦋 and boy 🦋😍💋❤️
Ого, как всё развернули👏
simpley superb
It's cute! 😊
She gave him the kiss off at the end
Love cute 💋💘💗❤
So the story is basically saying stay in the waters as much as necessary which may mean a lot
I wonder the fire flames like the Moth or something? He is trying to catch her or something?
Oh god, the birds on the hat are real....they weren't eating fabric at that point.
does anyone else remember a version of these characters but it was a clip with the song save the last dance for me by the drifters? or am i going crazy. i remember it playing as a short clip before a movie on vhs when i was a little kid
❤ ❤vintage cartoons 🎥 😍!
My father is comming with serious mind
حلو اوى الرسومات رافعة مين يقول انها من ايام الحرب العالمية
Did you see him try to eat his own hat? It must be a cautionary legend
Disney+ needs to submmit this.
so let me get this story straight-
a company of pests breaks into a house and starts to destroy property,
the fire who lives there flirts with the mothgirl who takes the bait after her boyfriend forget about her in favor of food,
after some playing around she decides no, the fire is persistent and chase her, starting to burn down the property to get to her,
the other moths drench the place and kills the guy who lives there.
Haha, the female moth rolled the fire with a fire insurance policy hope he has an extra copy on hand the shop keeper~
Who leaves a candle unattended? Methinks he wanted that insurance money
Hey look its great great grandma of Lightbug from Cuphead DLC. :D
Love ❤
Andreth and Aegnor 🥺🥺🥺
Angry Flame VS happy moths 😀
the fact that the animators made it known to us that the girl moth tried to kill the fire using the fire insurance the shop owner had, but the fire went through it so the shop owners screwed 🤭
Aí o amor é lindo demais
Fire isn't very friendly
Moth attracted to the flame 😅...
What a cheater. Not only did she cheat on the adorable moth, she caused trouble for the whole group too.
Well he was ignoring her so.... can you blame her?
She literally did nothing wrong? Lol wtf is wrong w you. She is not cheating since he doesn’t even care abt her lol
I agree with the person who made this comment. He cares about her but he was just trying to get a bite to eat cause he only had a feather which in what we eat is like us eating string cheese. You can't have that for a meal. That's a snack. She did cheat on him just because he was hungry
So most women
@@marcosromero4073 It's implied that they are on a date. If you completely ignore your date to focus on food, chances are they are going to be upset.
Moths eat only in the larval stage?🤔
Gracias te amo
I guess moths got a craving for clothing
Disney toons its always best toons
I didn't know moths can eat materials like that
