00:00Many a day we've walked this beach, eh, Paul?
00:04And in 25 years, we've yet to see a sign of a ship or another human being.
00:09Without your company and good conversation, I would have long since gone back.
00:13Oh, the pain, oh, the joy to be alone without man or boy, chick or child.
00:18We'll drive you wild.
00:20Robinson Crusoe and poor Paul Parrot.
00:24What's this, Paul, another bright shell to carry home?
00:27I'll bet it's a tasty sand crab.
00:28Do you never get enough...
00:30What?
00:32It can't be.
00:34But it is.
00:35It is.
00:36A footprint.
00:37A human footprint.
00:39Roar!
00:40Woe is me!
00:40Woe is me!
00:41Roar!
00:42Cannibals!
00:42Cannibals!
00:43Roar!
00:52Reichen Bass presents Festival of Family Classics.
00:58All of the tales that you know so well, features and fabels will story tell.
01:22Each classic creation, in new animation, today's presentation will be...
01:31From Daniel Defoe's World of Adventure, the intriguing story of Robinson Crusoe.
01:37Rocks.
01:39Rocks.
01:44Deadhead!
01:46Swing about!
01:46It's too late!
01:47We've lost the help!
01:51Rocks! Deadhead! Swing about!
02:01It's too late! We've lost the help! We're going across!
02:05We're lost! We're lost!
02:09Quickly, men! Get the boats away!
02:11Rock! And the light boats!
02:13Rock! And the light boats!
02:21Rock! Quick way of light! Rock! Quick way of light!
02:28Look, Paul! An island! Land ho! Land ho!
02:32Rock! We're safe! We're safe!
02:38I'm done for, Paul! Save yourself! I'll never make it!
02:42Man overboard! Rock! Yeah, throw them alive! Rock!
02:45Rock! Throw them alive!
02:51What's happening?
02:55Full speed ahead!
02:59I'm safe, Paul! It was a miracle!
03:01It was a fish!
03:07Wakey, wakey! Hit the deck lovers! Turn two!
03:09Good old Paul! We made it, eh?
03:12But it looks like we're the only ones!
03:14And what island is this?
03:17Without food or weapons,
03:18how are we going to make our way here?
03:20There may be savages, even cannibals!
03:22Cannibals? Woe is me!
03:24Ah! Woe is me!
03:26But don't give up!
03:27Come on! Let's walk up the beach!
03:29Something of use may be washed ashore!
03:32Paul, look there!
03:33The ship is hard aground!
03:35We've got to find a way to get out to her and take off supplies!
03:38Maybe a better view will show us how to board her!
03:43What's this?
03:44A walking rock!
03:46Quick, Paul! Let's catch her!
03:47Bring that piece of rope washed up there while I hold on!
03:53Good! Now let's put a bridle on our seagoing steed!
03:56Climb aboard, Paul!
03:59We couldn't ask for a better boat!
04:01Ding! Ding!
04:02All aboard!
04:03Who's going aboard?
04:04We've a fine vessel, Paul!
04:06She answers the helm straight away and is really shipshape!
04:09Let's christen her Sweet Bess after the Queen!
04:12God save the turtle!
04:17We'll tie Sweet Bess to the bottom here and then go aboard and see what we can find!
04:27It's a sad sight, Paul. Her sailing days are over.
04:30But she may still serve us. Let's get below and find what we can use ashore.
04:36Look here, Paul! Three more survivors!
04:38The good ship's dog, Ben, and Tiskin Task, our cats!
04:41Here, kitty, kitty, kitty!
04:42Ah! Sick'em, Ben! Sick'em!
04:44Now, we'll build a raft from these spars and rigging and ferry our gear ashore.
04:52Everybody on board? Good! Let's go!
04:55All right, Sweet Bess! Full speed ahead!
04:57All ashore! Who's going ashore?
04:59Ah!
05:12Look there, Paul! That seems a good place for our fortress!
05:14Hope to me, hearties! We're coming into port!
05:17This will be fine!
05:18Fine! We can store our kegs of gunpowder in this hollow.
05:21And here, put a strong fence of stakes to keep out wild animals or savages.
05:25All right, let's start!
05:27Everybody who's going to live here is also going to help with the building.
05:30And that means you two sly pusses, Tiskin Task!
05:32Now, let us give thanks to our protector, who has seen fit to bring us alone safely through
05:39the tempest to this lonely place.
05:42All things have purpose in his design, and we accept his will.
05:49Let's go!
05:50Let's go!
05:51Let's go!
05:52Let's go!
05:53Let's go!
05:54Let's go!
06:24Let's go!
06:25Let's go!
06:26Let's go!
06:27Well, Paul, our fort is secure.
06:29It should suit us well until a ship shows up.
06:31God willing, that will be soon, before cannibals might discover us.
06:34Ah!
06:35Heaven forbid!
06:36It's time to write in the journal again.
06:38Without a daily entry, we'd soon lose track of the time.
06:40Five bells!
06:41And all's well!
06:43February 30th, 1659.
06:47I, Robinson Crusoe, have been on the island six months now.
06:52In this time, much has been accomplished.
06:55Await the arrival of a ship.
06:59January 1st, 1684.
07:08This is my 25th year on the island, and I have long since been resigned to finish my days here.
07:15I now have a large herd of goats domesticated from the wild ones I caught.
07:20They provide me amply with milk, meat, and skins.
07:23Best of all, from a few kernels I found in the ship's hold, I have been able to raise my own corn, so now I have bread.
07:30To vary my diet, I dry grapes for raisins.
07:34All in all, I thrive.
07:36We have seen no sign of human life in all these years, and thank God, no cannibals, who have been my constant fear.
07:43I end this record for the day to take my afternoon walk on the beach.
07:50Many a day we've walked this beach, eh, Paul?
07:53And in 25 years, we've yet to see a sign of a ship or another human being.
07:57Without your company and good conversation, I would have long since gone back.
08:01Oh, the pain, oh, the joy to be alone without man or boy, chick or child.
08:06T'will drive you wild.
08:08Robinson Crusoe and poor Paul Parrot.
08:12What's this, Paul? Another bright shell to carry home?
08:14I'll bet it's a tasty sand crab. You never get enough...
08:17What? It can't be. But it is. It is. A footprint. A human footprint.
08:27Woe is me! Woe is me! Cannibals! Cannibals!
08:40Paul, it's a footprint. What will we do?
08:45Run for your life!
08:48Paul, wait, stop. Let's not panic.
08:52We don't know if Savage has made that footprint.
08:54I know, I know! Cannibals! Cannibals!
08:56If they are cannibals, then we've got to be sure.
09:00From this hill, we can look over the island.
09:02Paul, look there! Smoke! Someone is here!
09:06We've got to get closer and find out who.
09:08I know, I know! Cannibals! Cannibals!
09:11Quiet now, Paul. We'll soon see who it is.
09:15Cannibals!
09:16Cannibals!
09:18Cannibals!
09:29Cannibals!
09:30Paul, look there! They've got one poor devil tied up.
09:34I believe they mean to do him in.
09:36We can't let this happen, Paul.
09:38Savage or not, he's another human soul. It's our duty to rescue him.
09:41Speak for yourself, Rob.
09:43Quiet down, Paul, and listen to this. I have a plan.
09:55When I say go, cut the rope, Paul.
09:57Now he wants to fly, too.
09:59Go!
10:00Go!
10:14Well, Paul, we've fairly beaten them. They've struck their colors and run.
10:17Come back and fight like a man. Cowardly cannibals. We're not afraid of you.
10:21We're forgetting our manners, Paul. We've got to release this poor fellow.
10:24Don't trust him. A cannibal he was, and a cannibal he is.
10:27No, Paul, I don't think so. He's got a different look than those other fierce devils.
10:32Probably kidnapped from his tribe and brought here as a sacrifice.
10:36There, my friend. Now you're free.
10:39Here, what's this? The fellow thinks I'm some sort of god.
10:43No, no, this won't do.
10:45There, that's better.
10:47There are no slaves or masters on this island.
10:49The sea has cast us away here together, and we must work equally to survive.
10:53Now, the first thing we must do is give our new friend a name.
10:57Have you any ideas, Paul?
10:58Fido!
10:59Let's call him Fido.
11:00No, Paul. Fido will never do.
11:02You must forgive Paul, my friend. He's very fond of dogs and wants to name everyone after them.
11:07I have an idea. Today is Friday.
11:10And since you were saved this day, we will call you Friday.
11:14What do you think of that, Paul?
11:15I like Tuesday.
11:16Don't be a silly bird. Tuesday doesn't make any sense. No, it's Friday.
11:22Now that he's got a human friend, I'm back to being a bird.
11:29January 1st, 1686. It's been two years now since Friday came among us.
11:35We have found him a fine friend, trustworthy, and hardworking.
11:39All now dwell here in harmony.
11:41Murder! Help! Murder!
11:44Murder!
11:45What's this?
11:46Run for your life!
11:47Run!
11:48Sick him, Friday!
11:49Run!
11:50Run, Brutus! Run!
11:51Stop this!
11:52Friday, what's happening here?
11:54Chief Crusoe, Friday is victim of plot between bird and goat.
11:58Calm now, Friday. How could that be?
12:00Every time Friday pull weed, bird gives signal to goat.
12:04See, Chief Crusoe, that is what happens.
12:15Get in there, Brutus, and behave yourself.
12:18And you, Paul, that was a dirty trick to play on Friday.
12:21It's not Friday. It's Monday.
12:22You know what I mean.
12:23Now go out and pick some berries for dinner.
12:25And you, Friday, go on with your weeding.
12:27The time has come, I think, to consider the possibilities of leaving our island.
12:33These fights increase every day.
12:35Better to go now while we're still friends.
12:38I have decided we must leave our island and seek the company of others.
12:42Tell me again about the mainland, Friday. How far is it? And in which direction?
12:46My nation lies five suns to the northwest, Chief Crusoe.
12:50That must be the coast of Guyana. Have you seen other men such as I there, Friday?
12:55In a town many walks from my nation, I have heard of men in shining metal skins who ride behind tall crosses.
13:02Hmm. That sounds like the Spanish or Portuguese. Can you make a boat that would take us there?
13:08Yes. It must be big canoe to store food for many days. I know how to make it.
13:14But why do you want to leave, Chief Crusoe? We have everything we need here.
13:18Yes, we have made our way here. But I want to see my country again.
13:22To be with others who share my interest. To read what is happening in the world.
13:26Civilization. That is what I long for.
13:29Are we not civilized here, Chief Crusoe?
13:33Yes, I suppose so, in a way.
13:35Friday, happy here. Cook, ram, and put loudmouth bird in cage, and we have civilization here.
13:42Cannibal, murderer, savage!
13:44Tomorrow we will begin the boat.
13:48It won't be long now, Friday. It's going faster than I thought.
13:54It. Go quick without noisy bird to play jokes.
13:59Ah, Paul's down by the beach on watch.
14:02In all these years, we've never failed to keep a daily lookout for ships.
14:05Now, with our own boat near finished, we won't need...
14:07Ah! Sail ho! Sail ho!
14:10Ah!
14:11Did you hear that, Friday?
14:13Ah, bird squawk.
14:14Sail ho!
14:15Ah! Sail ho!
14:17He's calling sail ho. Do you suppose after all this time...
14:20Bird make bad joke.
14:22No, Paul wouldn't joke about a thing like that.
14:24There she blows. The ship off starboard beam.
14:27Ah! Sail ho!
14:29A ship! After all these years! We must make a sign so she sees us.
14:35Hooray!
14:36But wait! First, we'd better have a closer look.
14:38Paul, fetch my spyglass.
14:39Good boy, Paul. It won't hurt to be a little cautious.
14:44We'll see what flag she's flying.
14:51It... It's flying the skull and crossbones.
14:55Pirates!
14:56Pirates!
14:58Pirates!
15:04Shiver my timbers! It's pirates!
15:07We'll be murdered in our beds!
15:09Bird get murdered now if he don't stop squawking.
15:12That's right, Paul. Quiet down.
15:14First, we'll lay in wait, hidden, to watch for their next move.
15:17We make skulls and crossbones out of pirates.
15:20Oh, woe is me!
15:32It looks like they've brought two prisoners ashore.
15:34I wonder if they mean to maroon them, or worse.
15:37It's bound to be worse.
15:38We get them now.
15:39No, they outnumber us.
15:41Let's wait.
15:46Look, they're going off to look for water, leaving one man behind.
15:49Now, here's my plan.
15:50First, Paul, this is what I want you to do.
15:54Yoo-hoo! Sweetheart!
15:56What? Who said that?
15:58Yoo-hoo!
16:00Who's there?
16:01Come over here, handsome, and find out.
16:03It sounds like a young girl with a bad cough.
16:08Where are you?
16:09Right here, lover.
16:11Let's have a look at you ducks.
16:13Kiss me, you fool.
16:16It's a blooming bird.
16:18Throw down your cutlass and yield.
16:19Who be you, sir?
16:21Never mind.
16:22Back to the boat and release your prisoners.
16:26Now then, gentlemen, who are you, and how did you get yourselves in this position?
16:29I'm the captain of that ship out there, and this is my first mate.
16:32Two nights ago, we were set upon by half-dozen mutineers who took the ship and forced the rest of the crew to raise the Jolly Roger.
16:39They brought us here to do us in, which you, thank God, prevented.
16:44But how did you come to be here?
16:45That is a long story, Captain.
16:47First, we must make our position safe.
16:50Tell me, if we overcome these pirates on shore, will you be able to retake the ship?
16:54I'm sure of it, sir.
16:55The rest of the crew are loyal and were locked in the hold while these came ashore.
16:59Only two of the mutineers guard them.
17:01Then we must strike a bargain.
17:02If I help you to do this, will you guarantee passage back to England for myself and a companion?
17:07Gladly, sir.
17:08Done, then.
17:09Now we must proceed with caution.
17:11First, let's drag this boat under cover.
17:13But what of the other mutineers?
17:15Who will deal with them?
17:16Don't worry, my friend.
17:17That is nicely taken care of.
17:21There's bound to be a spring or stream nearby.
17:25Let's split up and look.
17:26It will be quicker that way.
17:27We'll be back at the boat in an hour.
17:37Yow!
17:38What is it?
17:40Take that!
17:41And that!
17:42Maybe I was seeing things.
17:44Enough!
17:45Enough of this!
17:46It's back to the boat for me.
17:47What?
17:48Something's out there.
17:49Got to get a hold of myself.
17:50Whatever's out there is, is flesh and blood like me.
17:52I'll wait here for it.
17:54Well, now.
17:55There's something I can deal with.
17:57There's something I can deal with.
18:01Yow!
18:02Ow!
18:03Oh, Graham.
18:04Finally do something smart.
18:08That water looks refreshing.
18:09I'll have a drink before I fill the cask.
18:13Yow!
18:14Yow!
18:15Yow!
18:16Oh, Graham, finally do something smart.
18:20That water looks refreshing.
18:21I'll have a drink before I fill the cask.
18:23Yow!
18:24Yow!
18:25Yow!
18:26Yow!
18:27Yow!
18:28Yow!
18:29Yow!
18:30Yow!
18:31Yow!
18:32Yow!
18:33Yow!
18:34Yow!
18:35Yow!
18:36Yow!
18:37Yow!
18:38Yow!
18:39Yow!
18:40Yow!
18:41Yow!
18:42Yow!
18:43Yow!
18:44Yow!
18:45Yow!
18:46Yow!
18:47Yow!
18:48Yow!
18:49Yow!
18:50Yow!
18:51Yow!
18:52Help!
18:53Help!
18:54Friday Hell.
18:55He's being torn apart by wild beasts.
18:56Yow!
18:57Yow!
18:58I'm getting out of here.
18:59Listen.
19:00Something's coming through the jungle.
19:02And making good speed, too, from the sound of it.
19:04One of the pirates escaping from Friday.
19:06The boat's gone.
19:10And the watch.
19:11Have I come back to the same place?
19:14Yes!
19:15There's the ship, dead ahead.
19:17Stand down and give quarter.
19:19What?
19:20Who is this new apparition?
19:22Better to be drowned than die at the hands of savages?
19:27He's getting away!
19:28If he reaches the ship and warns the others we're done in.
19:31Then we're finished.
19:32The rogue swims like a fish.
19:35Am I crazy, or does the pirate seem to be getting closer to shore the harder he swims?
19:39It looks as though he moves backward the more he swims forward.
19:44This can't be.
19:45Some crazy horse.
19:47Doze me toward the beach.
19:49It's sweet Vess.
19:51She has captured him fairly.
19:55It looks as though every creature works for you on this island, Mr. Crusoe.
19:59Now we've got to take the ship back from the other pirates.
20:02First we will launch the longboat, and then...
20:05Ahoy aboard ship!
20:07Drop the ladder!
20:08Who's those two strange looking ducks?
20:11Answer as you were told, or I'll make sure you're the first to hang when we reach England.
20:15These two we found marooned on the island.
20:18Drop the ladder quick now!
20:20Send the savage up first so we can watch him!
20:26You cannibal!
20:27Keep your hands up and stand there!
20:36Don't let go, mate!
20:37Don't let go!
20:38I can't swim!
20:39Help!
20:40Well, Captain, I'd say this was the end of your mutiny.
20:43Thanks to your friends, Mr. Crusoe.
20:48Well, Friday, take a long last look at our home.
20:52We may never see it again.
20:53A Friday happy where Chief Crusoe is.
20:56Give civilization a try.
20:58Good for you, Friday.
21:00Wait for me!
21:02Wait for me!
21:03Did you hear something, Friday?
21:05Friday hear birds squawk.
21:07Paul, what happened? Where have you been?
21:09Saying goodbye to all our friends.
21:11Sweet bass sends her bass.
21:14Yes, we've had good friends here.
21:16We're going to miss them.
21:19Bye!
21:41Bye!

24:01Rock!
24:02Man the light boats!
24:03Rock!
24:04Man the light boats!
24:05Quick way or light!
24:06Rock!
24:07Quick way or light!
24:08Rock!
24:09Quick way or light!
24:10Rock!
24:11Quick way or light!
24:12Many a day we've walked this beach, eh, Paul?
24:13And in 25 years, we've yet to see a sign of a ship or another human being.
24:26Without your company and good conversation, I would have long since gone back.
24:29Rock!
24:30Oh, the pain!
24:31Oh, the joy!
24:32To be alone without man or boy, chick or child!
24:34Rock!
24:35It will drive you wild!
24:37Robinson Crusoe and poor Paul Parrot!
24:40What's this, Paul?
24:42Another bright shell to carry home?
24:43I'll bet it's a tasty sand crab.
24:45You never get enough...
24:46What?
24:49It can't be.
24:50But it is.
24:52It is!
24:53A footprint!
24:54A human footprint!
24:55Rock!
24:56Woe is me!
24:57Woe is me!
24:58Rock!
24:59Cannibals!
25:00Cannibals!
25:01Rock!
25:07Look, Paul!
25:08An island!
25:09Land ho!
25:10Land ho!
25:11Rock!
25:12We're safe!
25:13We're safe!
25:17I'm done for, Paul!
25:19Save yourself!
25:20I'll never make it!
25:21Man overboard!
25:22Rock!
25:23Throw him alive!
25:24Rock!
25:25Come along!
25:33What's happening?
25:34Full speed ahead!
25:38I'm safe, Paul!
25:39It was a miracle!
25:40It was a fish!
25:46Wakey, wakey!
25:47Hit the deck lovers!
25:48Turn two!
25:49Good old Paul!
25:50Good old Paul!
25:51We made it, eh?
25:52But it looks like we're the only ones!
25:54And what island is this?
25:56Without food or weapons, how are we going to make our way here?
25:59There may be savages!
26:00Even cannibals!
26:01Cannibals!
26:02Woe is me!
26:03And woe is me!
26:04And woe is me!
26:05But don't give up!
26:06Come on!
26:07Let's walk up the beach!
26:08Something of use may be washed ashore!
26:11Paul!
26:12Look there!
26:13The ship is hard aground!
26:14We've got to find a way to get out to her and take off supplies!
26:17Maybe a better view will show us how to board her!
26:22What's this?
26:23A walking rock!
26:24Ah!
26:25Quick, Paul!
26:26Let's catch her!
26:27Bring that piece of rope washed up there while I hold on!
26:32Good!
26:33Now let's put a bridle on our seagoing steed!
26:37Climb aboard, Paul!
26:38We couldn't ask for a better boat!
26:40Ding!
26:41Ding!
26:42All aboard!
