The Cactus Kid
Marcellite Garner was working in the ink and paint department when she auditioned to voice Minnie Mouse. Because Minnie would be playing a Mexican in this short, it came down to her and one other woman, the only two applicants who spoke Spanish. Garner got the part because she was also willing to sing, which the other auditioner was not. She went on to voice Minnie for over a decade before leaving the studio permanently.,One version censors a scene in which Pete takes Minnie's beer glass away from her, but contains a scene where Mickey is fighting with Pete. Another version is shown the other way around.,Featured in The Mickey Mouse Club: Circus Day - Robbins and Bono (1955),Mickey finds himself down old Mexico way as he approaches a cantina where Minnie tends bar. He does some fancy dancing but grabs her nose and the next thing you know, everything that isn't bolted down comes flying at him. Also, to make matters worse, Pete shows up and puts the moves on Minnie. There is quite a shootout in the dark and Pete and Minnie ride away. Mickey and his horse pursue them. Lots of dancing and the usual ending.,
