A theatrical cartoon short I remember from when I was very young, possibly from the 1930s. It was about pirates as I said and the only things I could remember was the song, which had the words "deep blue sea" in it for obvious reasons, and one other thing was something I never would've realized at the time, but might have been a depiction of a homosexual in the 1930s. I honestly thought it was supposed to be a lady, but thinking back on it that might have been what it was.

I recall the homosexual singing along to the song before narrowly avoiding a bunch of knives thrown at them, which either was an indication that the pirates were homophobic or the creators themselves were homophobic which would've been very likely of the time. I actually found a different pirate short of the time called "King Neptune" where a similar thing happened. A homosexual was singing along to a pirate song until a jug was thrown at them, but it definitely wasn't the one I remember because it was a skinny guy not a fat one like in the "King Neptune" short.

I know I was surprised/intrigued when I first learned it was his favorite movie, already knowing his narrow media interests by that point. It's so narrow that he doesn't even understand what people like about several well-loved classic movies like Citizen Kane, Pulp Fiction or The Godfather movies. Not that they have to be his favorites, but it strikes me as odd that he cares when he only seems to be interested in b-movies, Universal muhnsters and Stallone films. What was it about THIS movie that did it for him anyway?
