The film inspires Julius to form a plan which will allow his master to win the hand of the royal daughter. They watch a film featuring 'Rodolph Vaselino' ( Rudolph Valentino) as a bullfighter. The rejected duo head to a movie theater, seeking entertainment. The king objects to both relationships and throws the commoner and his cat out of the palace. Julius is in love with the white female cat of the king, who also serves as the royal chauffeur. The hero is in love with the daughter of a king, and the feeling is mutual. The hero of the tale is an unnamed young man, a commoner. The setting of the film is contemporary, effectively featuring the 1920s United States, albeit with the anachronistic presence of a traditional monarchy in an otherwise modern setting. The frequent gags and unconventional plots provide the Laugh-O-Grams with the mood of a carnival spectacle. The relatively primitive drawings were created by the small staff of the studio, which consisted of Walt Disney himself, Hugh Harman and Rudolf Ising, Ub Iwerks, Carman Maxwell, Lorrey Tague, and Otto Walliman. Disney led the way towards the animated melodrama genre and the incorporation of seriousness in the plots. This was part of a shift in animation of the time, as the products of the film form previously consisted mostly of comedy films. In contrast, the 1930s fairy-tale derived animated shorts of Disney incorporated themes examining the morality of the characters involved, and were more didactic in intent. The film is representative of 1920s Disney-produced films in relying on visual gags, anarchic humor, and (in the finale) a chase scene. Disney likely did not care about retelling a tale already familiar to the audience, and set out to create a distinct version of the tale. While supposedly based on Puss in Boots (1697) by Charles Perrault, it bears little actual resemblance to any literary version of the story. The three already mentioned, plus The Four Musicians of Bremen (1922), Jack and the Beanstalk (1922), Jack the Giant Killer (1922), and Goldie Locks and the Three Bears (1922). There were a total of seven Laugh-O-Grams based on fairy tales. It is one of the earliest surviving products of the Laugh-O-Gram Studio to be based on a fairy tale, alongside Little Red Riding Hood (1919) and Cinderella (1922). The film was produced in Kansas City, Missouri. The film was based on the book by Charles Perrault. Puss in Boots is a 1922 film directed by Walt Disney.
