Chanticleer was going to be a move based on the pre-World War 1 French play "Chantecler" written by Edmund Rostland. It was in Development from the 1940s up until the mid 1960s and never saw completion.
Plot
The film takes place on a Parisian farm in the late 1800s, much like the play, "Chanticleer" would have been the story of a vain rooster who had all the animals believing that his crowing was what brought up the sun each morning. Then a ruthless band of "Night Creatures" lead by a vicious fox who is named Reynard are planning to seize the animals on the farm for food. Under the guise of a traveling circus, the animals came to the farm and performed for the animals. This somehow caused them to lose faith in Chanticleer and now want Reynard to lead them instead of Chanticleer. in another scene, a beautiful Pheasant who was new on the farm had constantly been trying to get Chanticleer to notice her, but all attempts to do so had failed. So Reynard, hoping that her beauty would distract Chanticleer so that the rooster couldn't ruin his plan, offered to give her a makeover. However, Chanticleer would have eventually realized what the fox was up to, at which point the rooster was to have dueled one of Reynard's henchmen, a Spanish fighting rooster who would've gone by Senior Poco Loco, during which time the sun would have risen without the need his crowing. At this, he would learn how being vain is wrong, found the strength to beat Senior Poco Loco and chased away the baddies in the end.
