Has anyone noticed that his story/song about the Little Fiddle is foreshadowing for what happens later in the movie? The Little Fiddle is Rosaline, the handsome young trumpet is of course Danny Kaye, and the "Wicked Guardian who is a French horn," and turns out to be a Glockenspiel is Rosaline's uncle Peter, who turns out to be the Boot.

I never thought of that...
I'm going to have to pay more attention the next time I watch it...

Of course! The plot of the Liddle Fiddle is identical to the plot of every romantic comedy that has ever been written.

It's the plot of most Danny Kaye movies.
