BUGS TO CARMEN TO BUGS

Apropos of yesterday’s killer Bugs Bunny musical number from ‘Hillbilly Hare’, here is Bugs dancing up a storm in ‘Slick Hare’ (1947). Watch as Bugs morphs into Carmen Miranda only to shed his new identity upon getting a taste of audience adulation. That and Elmer Fudd’s cleaver keeps him dancing. Truly cartooning at its most devilishly clever and un-Disney like. I love Elmer keeping a Latinesque beat with his weapon and I especially love the generic sound effect library cheers from the audience that Bugs receives as he conga’s off, stage left.
