So, 'The Froze Nose Knows' is an interesting little piece from 1970. It’s this quirky animation that tells the story of an Aardvark chasing an Ant through a winter wonderland, which sets a pretty unique tone—it's cold, yet kind of silly at the same time. The pacing is really playful, fitting for a family audience but with a vibe that feels a bit offbeat. The visuals have this handmade charm that reminds you of the era's practical effects; it’s all very colorful and fun. You can see the effort put into character animation, especially in the Aardvark's exaggerated shivers. The humor is light, but there’s something about the chase that adds a sense of tension amidst the laughter, making it stand out from typical family animations of the time.
This title has had a bit of a rough history in terms of availability, which makes it kind of a treasure for collectors. Originally released in limited formats, it’s become increasingly scarce over the years, with only a handful of VHS and DVD editions popping up on the market. There’s definitely a niche interest among collectors who appreciate the quirky animation style and the charm of its era, so if you find a copy, it’s worth holding onto.
