Released in [[The Golden Age of Animation|1942 (in Brazil, released in 1943 in the States)]], '''''[[Saludos Amigos]]''''' (or "Hello Friends") is the 6th Movie in the [[Disney Animated Canon]].
 
In a time during [[World War II]], Disney was sent to [[Latin Land|South America]] to create a movie as a gesture of good will (read up on [http://en.[wikipedia.org/wiki/Good_Neighbor_policy:Good Neighbor policy|The Good Neighbor Policy]] for more information on that). The plan was initially to simply release a series of shorts, but when it was worried that a specific short would only be popular in the country it was about, it was decided to package several together in a feature film. The end result is [[Saludos Amigos]], a movie split apart into 4 distinct shorts:
 
* ''Lake Titicaca'' has [[Donald Duck]] visiting the titular lake and doing the whole tourist thing, renting a musically trained Llama to help him get around.
Line 44:
* [[Painting the Fourth Wall]]: Both of the last two segments do a bit of this. Several of the scene transitions in El Gaucho Goofy push around the characters, while Aquarela do Brasil is a bit more literal. Donald even takes some of the paint off of José as he's being drawn and uses it to draw his own picture, causing the artist to draw a pool behind Donald and knock him into it.
* [[Shown Their Work]] - Arguably the point of the film; each segment presents itself like a documentary and details the research done by the cartoonists.
* [[Sorry I Left the BGM On]]: Goofy begins singing a campfire song in [[Non -Singing Voice|a voice that clearly isn't his]]. At which point his song starts looping. Pan over to record player with the needle stuck in the groove.
* [[Stylistic Suck]]: Look at Donald's drawing; he's not nearly as skilled a cartoonist as the artist drawing José Carioca.
