Mickey Mouse Back After 42-Year Hiatus

Playing with “A Kid in King Arthur’s Court” is “Runaway Brain,” the first Mickey Mouse cartoon in 42 years, an amusing vignette in which Mickey encounters a Frankenstein-like mad scientist who switches his brain with that of his monster creation.

The tone of the cartoon is highly contemporary, but its handsome backgrounds have an appropriate retro ‘30s-‘40s look.

Wayne Allison and his wife, Russi Taylor, supply voices for Mickey and Minnie with Kelsey Grammer speaking for the mad scientist.
