New Girl

About This Movie

So, 'New Girl' is this intriguing little gem from 1970, part of Disney's 'What Should I Do?' series. The animation style is pretty standard for the time, but there's something about its earnestness that really stands out. The pacing is swift, which fits the educational tone, but it also allows the short to explore its themes of social interaction and personal growth without dragging. It has that classic Disney charm, yet feels more like a public service announcement wrapped in animation. It's not just a typical kids' film; it’s a reflection on navigating new environments and friendships, which gives it a distinct flavor that feels relevant even today.

Finding 'New Girl' can be a bit tricky since it hasn’t had a wide release in various formats, making original prints quite sought after among collectors. Its inclusion in the 'What Should I Do?' series means it holds a unique place in Disney's educational efforts, which adds to its appeal. While not a mainstream title, there’s definitely a niche interest, particularly among those who appreciate Disney’s lesser-known works from the early animation era.
