''Who Killed Cock Robin?'' is a 1935 animated short film (8 minutes) from Creator/{{Disney}}, one of the WesternAnimation/SillySymphonies. It was directed by David Hand.
Unsurprisingly, it is based on the traditional nursery rhyme "[[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cock_Robin Who Killed Cock Robin?]]". Cock Robin is serenading sexy Jenny Wren when he's shot by an arrow, tumbling from a tree branch to the ground. All the birds of the forest then launch a comic trial set to music, with an owl for a judge, in which they set out to discover who killed Cock Robin.
