Donald's Dream Voice


Donald's Dream Voice is a 1948 American animated short film featuring Donald Duck; the film was directed by Jack Hannah and produced by Walt Disney. In the short film, no one understands a word that salesman Donald says, so he takes voice pills to improve his speech.

Summary

Donald is trying to sell brushes door-to-door, but since nobody can understand him, nobody will buy anything. He happens across a street vendor selling voice pills. They work great, but he's only got a limited number so of course, the last pill ends up in various inconvenient places.

Plot

Donald has a problem where he fails to sell brushes throughout the neighbourhood because no one can hear his voice clearly. At Daisy's house, Daisy told Donald that people wouldn't trust him about his unclear voice.
Finally, he finds a solution to clear his voice: taking a voice pill, leading to a massive increase in his brush sales. The customers are grateful to hear and understand Donald's voice.
It increases Donald's confidence and makes him eager to ask Daisy to marry him. After he sells all the brushes, he loses the pills along the way, leaving him only one. Then, he goes back to Daisy's house, just as his new voice reverts to his old voice. When he tries to take the pill, it does nothing and falls to the ground and bounces away from him and he starts following it.
Donald chases the pill through the streets and onto the hat of a particularly large gentleman, and then it finally ends up in the mouth of a cow, which causes the cow to talk in his clear voice, with Donald taunting him for his last pill. Also, the cow can't understand Donald's voice, causing Donald to lose his temper.
