Captain of the Forest - Attila Dargay (Presented with the National Film Institute Hungary – Film Archive)
This is the story of Captain (Captain Schnauser in the English Dub from 1994), a brave dog and the police Captain of the Forest taking on and outwitting his arch rival, Zero the Cat, a master of disguise and fraud, with his plan to make a bundle, even if it means that it might discombulate the animals and making them homeless.
I remember seeing this back in 1996 when I was 4 years old at a babysitter's house when my mom was working a mid afternoon shift at a diner, as this one is one of the Four Animated Films directed by Attila Dargay to be dubbed in English. I don't remember much of it, but what I do remember is that there was a different song written for at the English dub of the aforementioned film, performed at the end of the movie. Talk about dubbing everything back in the early to mid 90s though when translating shit was hot.
Here is the VHS trailer promo for the English dub.
I just rewatched this animated film again this afternoon, this time, in its Magyar dubbing and English sub. The animated film also written by Dargay but also cowritten by István Imre (director of the previously mentioned "The Adventure of St. Gallen").
The English dub for the animated feature is a cruel mistress to find, unless you dig hard on Internet Archive which has the English dub. Both versions (English and Magyar dubbed) are enjoyable yet a fun adventure!
