* ValuesResonance: That said, it's easy to interpret Luanna Patten's parents as being out for the night for whatever reason, so they asked their family friend Edgar Bergen to watch her for the evening - and their relationship is proven to be very wholesome. Especially since Charlie [=McCarthy=] is supposed to be a child too, so the party can be seen as a play date between them with Bergen as a kindly, parental supervisor. The idea of male caretakers is more accepted in the twenty first fcentury.

** Related, but "Mickey and the Beanstalk" was often aired separately on television and even released separately on home video - removed from its original context and with a different dub, causing some people to be unaware that it was actually a part of a larger package film.



** Record players actually ''did'' make a resurgence in TheNewTens.

** Nor is ''Mickey and the Beanstalk'' the first cartoon version of ''Literature/JackAndTheBeanstalk'' where the beanstalk grows from under the house and lifts the sleeping Jack character(s) into the air in his/their bed. This also happens in the 1939 Creator/WalterLantz cartoon ''The Magic Beans''. As it happens, that cartoon's Jack character, Beanie, is also an anthropomorphic mouse.
