A ruby is stolen from a museum and a purblind museum sponsor, with his assistant plus two government agents, go after the jewel.
The credits do not apparently place a mention to the character's creators (and nor does the IMDB), screenwriter Millard Kaufman and director John Hubley, in a 1949 cartoon. Magoo was without the shadow of a doubt the best and funniest cartoon ever produced (and ever to be in the future, no doubt at all about this). It is funny too to read that it was originally conceived (by the two pinkoes cited) as a reactionary. As usual, good art is unintentional, or, parodying a famous saying, heaven is full of bad intentions. As this is supposed to be a comment of the 1997 film, I am obliged to say that it is very well made but not very funny.
