Steamboat Willie background

Steamboat Willie

Mickey Mouse is a troublemaking crew member on a steamboat captained by the authoritarian Captain Pete.

In this classic cartoon, Mickey Mouse pilots a steamboat when Captain Pete suddenly appears and throws him off. The boat stops to pick up cargo, and Mickey uses the crane to rescue Minnie, who narrowly missed the boat. Unfortunately, a goat eats her sheet music, but Mickey and Minnie work together to get the goat to play the tune by cranking its tail. Mickey joins in on percussion, creating a unique musical performance by "torturing" various animals. However, their fun is short-lived, as Pete intervenes and assigns Mickey to peel potatoes, marking the first sound appearance of the beloved character.
