Moving Aweigh is a 1944 Popeye the Sailor cartoon directed by Dan Gordon

Summary[]

Popeye and Shorty help Olive move. Unfortunately, they start by running into a police car, and keep running afoul of the officer.

Plot[]

Popeye and Shorty help Olive move, but they get on the bad side of a stern policeman. Loading Olive's belongings into a truck does not go without incident for the sailors, often involving doing damage to the lawman's patrol car. When Popeye restrains Shorty for his clumsiness, this leads to Olive's things being dropped directly on top of the officer. Eventually, even the moving van lands atop him, which results in Olive and the boys making "home sweet home" out of a jail cell.

Voices[]

  • Jack Mercer - Popeye
  • Arnold Stang - Shorty

Trivia[]

  • Olive Oyl has no dialogue.
  • This is the final Popeye cartoon directed by Dan Gordon.
  • This is final appearance of Shorty and the only time that Arnold Stang (whom Shorty is originally a caricature of) voiced him.
