Synopsis by Hal Erickson
This curious theatrical "filler" consists of a lengthy excerpt from Popeye the Sailor, the 1933 "Betty Boop" cartoon in which the spinach-eating mariner made his screen debut. The footage has been reconfigured as a "Follow the Bouncing Ball" cartoon, with the lyrics to Popeye's theme song appearing on-screen as Popeye invites the audience to sing along. Though Popeye the Sailor is not in Public Domain, the 2-minute Let's Sing Along with Popeye has managed to slip through the copyright cracks and remains a popular attraction on videotape and DVD.
