From the 1977 film Allegro non Troppo.Made as a response to Disney's Fantasia, it is a classic in its own right, as this excerpt clearly shows. It is fully and completely awesome. The DVD has the movie and a whole catalog of his incredible short animations - the most bang for your buck.
Split into 3 parts.

Gisele Kerozene, Jan Kounen, 1993
This may not look like a cartoon, per se, but the stop motion animation is quite sophisticated and well done, which you may notice when you stop laughing.
The daily cartoons so far.
I've been posting daily animations for my friends on Facebook, and they've really been enjoying it. One of them suggested that I should post them in blog form as well. His thought was that it would make me rich (thanks for thinking of me, Jon, but I'm pretty sure that isn't going to work) but my motivation is much more altruistic. Cartoons are the best thing in the whole entire world, and should be shared with everyone, not just the lucky few who happen to know me.
Here are the first couple weeks of the daily cartoons, in reverse chronological order. I will try to embed them when I can, and will provide links when I can't.
March 29: Quasi at the Quackadero Sally Cruikshank.
March 28: Interplanet Janet, Schoolhouse Rock
March 27: Piotr Kamler, Couer de Secours 1973
March 26: Time for Timer. Hankerin' for a hunk of cheese and stuff. Three PSAs.
(What the Hell is Time for Timer anyway? A singing, dancing, lump of fat with arms and legs? Please say it's something else.)
March 25: Farce Anthropo: Cynique by Kihachiro Kawamoto
BONUS VIDEO: Photographs of Jesus, Laurie Hill in association with the Getty Images Short and Sweet film challenge
March 24: Bimbo's Initiation, Fleischer Studios
