  • Minnie the Moocher is a 1932 Betty Boop cartoon produced by Fleischer Studios and released by Paramount Pictures.
    Plot
    The cartoon opens with a live action sequence of the famous black musician Cab Calloway and his orchestra performing an instrumental rendition of "St. James Infirmary". Betty Boop gets into an argument with her strict immigrant parents when she will not eat the traditional Hasenpfeffer. She runs away with her puppy boyfriend Bimbo, and sings excerpts of the Harry Von Tilzer song "They Always Pick on Me" and the song "Mean to Me".
    Betty and Bimbo end up in a cave where a walrus-like apparition appears (voiced by Calloway), who sings "Minnie the Moocher" and dances to the melancholy song. Calloway is joined in the performance by other ghosts, goblins, skeletons, and other creatures. Betty and Bimbo are subjected to skeletons drinking at a bar; ghost prisoners sitting in electric chairs; a cat with empty eye-sockets feeding her equally empty-eyed kittens; and so on. Betty and Bimbo both change their minds about running away and rush back home with the ghouls in hot pursuit. Betty makes it safely back to her home and hides under the blankets of her bed. As she shakes in terror, the note she earlier wrote to her parents tears, leaving "Home Sweet Home" on it. The film ends with Calloway performing the instrumental "Vine Street Blues".
