Happiness (1934): While happiness may indeed involve having a sister, sharing a sandwich, getting along, then finding a pencil, climbing a tree, catching a firefly and setting him free, it frankly makes for a sad viewing experience.

Happiness (1934): Little-known and commercially-unsuccessful predecessor to Disney's Snow White and the Seven Dwarves. In this 70-minute black-and-white cartoon, we observe dwarf Happy's journey from his original home on a tropical beach to the forest where the Six Dwarves dwell. Due to the lack of sound, we are often left guessing as to his motivations. What is perfectly clear, however, is that he looks terrible in a bathing costume.

Happiness (1934): Buddhist monks meet a devilishly clever assortment of people as they travel in pre-war Eastern Europe trying to reassure the Jewish communities that happiness is not a worthy goal. Highlights include a bamboo flute rendition of the classic "Life! What's it Good For?"

Happiness (1934): Electricity comes to the Tennessee Valley with the construction of large dams. One impoverished farming family, displaced by a new power plant, discovers that while money can't buy happiness, it's better to be rich and miserable than poor and miserable.

Happiness (1934): A dark and ironic portrait of dysfunctional family relationships at the height of the Great Depression. When a young woman rejects her overweight suitor in a restaurant, he unexpectedly places a curse on her. The young woman's sister, ignorant of her huband's improper fascination with scamps, deludes herself to be happily married. Meanwhile, the relationship between the sisters' parents suddenly unravels when he decides he wants to live a hermit's life in Florida. Often cited as the chief inspiration for Todd Solondz's 1998 film by the same name, though he denies having seen the film.

Happiness (1934): "Happiness" is a stylized Russian folk tale about a poor and lazy peasant by the name of Khmyr, who dreams of becoming a tsar, eating his fill of pork fat and doing nothing (his idea of happiness), and his industrious wife, Anna, who found real happiness on a collective farm after the revolution.
