Gulliver washes ashore on Lilliput and attempts to prevent war between that tiny kingdom and its equally-miniscule rival, Blefiscu, as well as smooth the way for the romance between the Princess and Prince of the opposing lands. In this he is alternately aided and hampered by the Lilliputian town crier and general fussbudget, Gabby. A life-threatening situation develops when the bumbling trio of Blefiscu spies, Sneak, Snoop, and Snitch, manage to steal Gulliver's pistol.
Editor's Verdict
"The movie 'Gulliver's Travels' (1939) is an adaptation of a classic adventure novel. While it was released near the holiday season (which is the only detected element), the plot, themes, setting, and iconography have no inherent connection to Christmas traditions or narratives."
