The cartoon I have in mind is very obscure. I wish there were a more appropriate forum to post my question to, but as yet I haven’t identified one.
When I was a small child, circa 1960, I saw a cartoon on television in which a young boy, in voiceover, is telling an adult–probably his father–about Satan and his followers being cast out of Heaven. I believe there was some suggestion that he was telling about what he had learned in Sunday School, though, of course, there is no such story in The Bible.
In the story he says the various angels got into a “star fight”, which, he explained, is like a snowball fight except that one throws stars instead of snow balls. The cartoon was likely in black-and-white and was done in a distinctive, sketchy style, possibly to emulate a child’s drawings.
In the end the little boy says something to the effect that he may have made parts of the story up to fill in things he didn’t remember and, in what I think was the last line, the adult said something like “yes: I thought you might have.”
I know this isn’t much to go on, but through the years various things have caused me to recall this cartoon and, if it is even half as charming and original as I think it was, it is well worth seeing again. Does anyone have an idea as to what this was and where it might still be seen?
