Winter is a Silly Symphonies animated Disney short film. It was released on October 30, 1930, by Columbia Pictures.^[1]

Summary[edit]

Winter has come to the forest and the snow is falling. When the wind blows, animals sleep. When the wind stops blowing, the little trees and various animals dance and play. Various animals are ice skating. Some animals dance in duos, while others form large dance groups. When the wind returns, the animals take shelter.

Reception[edit]

The Film Daily (December 28, 1930): "This Disney Silly Symphony doesn't stand up with previous releases. The synchrony is well done and the animation up to the average but it lacks gags for laughs. Much snow, skating and sliding, with the usual animal antics for nothing particularly clever."^[2]

Home media[edit]

The short was released on December 19, 2006, on Walt Disney Treasures: More Silly Symphonies, Volume Two.^[1]
