In this installment of the Barney Bear films, Barney is out collecting berries when he meets up with a skunk. Unfortunately, the skunk REALLY likes berries and follows Barney everywhere--across a log overlooking a HUGE drop and even to Barney's home! However, unlike most cartoons like this, the skunk isn't mean nor does he torture Barney. Instead, Barney just can't stand the smell of him and gets himself in trouble trying to avoid him. Overall, it's rather cute and sweet. Not among the very best Barney Bear cartoons but a worthy addition--with a gentle sense of humor and typically lovely animation--which is true of all the MGM cartoons of this era. Worth seeing.
