The Magic Pear Tree
The famous lover Jean Navarro arrives at the castle of a marquis. This is a vulgar bon vivant who has been married to the young Chantelle for a short time. At lunch the Marquis falls asleep and Chantelle goes into the garden with Jean, shows him the roses, the stables and the summer house and shortly afterwards confesses her love to him. Jean asks her to do three things as proof of her affection: the tail feathers of her husband's favorite bird, the marquis's whiskers and one of his teeth.

"Jean", a young traveller is invited to lunch by an elderly, rather course, nobleman whereupon he meets the man's much younger wife. After a brief tour of their estate, she declares her undying love for him. To test her devotions, he sets her three tasks... This is quite entertaining - based on the old Chinese tale; but the standard of the animation is not great. Fun to watch, though - with a charming effort from Agnes Moorehead as the young "Chantelle" and a fun French accent from Keenan Wynn too!
