988. Angel Puss

 

WARNING! THE SHORT THAT I AM REVIEWING CONTAINS RACIAL STEREOTYPES

 With a title like that, i hope this one is angelic and isn’t sin- oh. This is by far the most racist Censored 11 short. Far more racist than Coal Black and De Sebben Dwarfs (#44) and The Isle of Pingo Pongo (#466).

 This short is just… too cruel not cruel like Mouse Wreckers (#161) cruel. It’s far more crueler than regular Chuck Jones cruelty. And is also very racist, and is definitely a product of it’s time.

 This goes far as to show that post-1942 can be one of the worst cartoons you can see. This probably deserves to be much more lower than it should be, but it at least has cruelty and is not cutesy or has bad comedy.

 This is also one of the very first Censored 11 shorts that i have seen, way before i became a professional. I saw this once on a “public domain” VHS back in the mid 2000s. I came back and found that VHS (a very obscure Indonesian one) and also had “The Unruly Hare”, “An Itch In Time”, “Elmer’s Pet Rabbit”, “Super-Rabbit”, “Daffy Dilly” and “Tom Turk & Daffy”. So much for being a public domain VHS.

RATING: 2.8 / 10
