The Brave Tin Soldier
A one-legged tin soldier is cruelly mocked by other toys because of his deformity. The soldier falls in love with a toy ballerina who is desired by the toy king. The king exercises his military power to get the girl for himself. The tale ends tragically, with a surprisingly graphic execution by firing squad. This is probably too violent and weird for little kids. There are some celebrity caricature toys, including a Groucho Marx jack-in-the-box.
short film The Brave Tin Soldier, directed by Ub Iwerks, screenplay, inspired by Hans Christian Andersen (1934)
