    Two favorite themes in late 1930s cartoons: caricatures of Hollywood stars, and applying swing music rhythms to old-fashioned stuff. 1939 audiences would've recognized all these performers easily...today, very few will know them.

    I don't think anyone correctly identified the annoying little girl who starts this entire thing off by demanding her daddy tell her a story. She is Baby Snooks, played by Fanny Brice, who was the star of her own radio show in which she played this obnoxious character. Two of her gag catch-phrases were "Why??" (said repeatedly) and "I don't wanna!" You'll notice the first appears several times in this cartoon.

      To answer your question - you’re way off. The little girl is Fanny Brice, playing a character named Baby Snooks. Katherine Hepburn appears at 4:44, dancing with Ned Sparks.

    Here are more recognizable celeb caricatures: Hugh "Woo-Woo" Herbert, Ned Sparks ( dancing with the Great Kate ), Benny Goodman, Joe E. Brown, Robert Taylor, William Powell, Jack Benny, Leopold Stokowski ( who was seen in "Fantasia"...and he's jitterbugging with Garbo, big feet and all!! ), Fred & Ginger, Wallace Beery, Mickey Rooney and a young Joan Crawford. The other stars were probably big in the '30s but have become obscure over time.

  • @2up3rm4n1
    @2up3rm4n1 11 лет назад +7

    Okay, lets see if we can pinpoint these a bit better. I've never seen so many depictions in one cartoon like this.
    Edna Mae Oliver is Mother Goose.
    We then have 8 figures playing A tisket, a tasket.
    Among them is Martha Raye (thought that was her), Greta Garbo, Edward G. Robinson and Hugh Herbert. Is that other one supposed to be James Cagney?
    Who's the sailor and who is that between Cagney and Robinson? She looks like Cindy Williams of Laverne and Shirley.
    Okay, the sailor lost his cap and a blonde girl has appeared.
    Who on Earth is that that approaches the crying girl?
    Cary Grant, Marx bros, Stan and Ollie, WC Fields, recognize all of them.
    William Powell, got him.
    Joe E. Brown on the trombone?
    Don't know either of the clarinetists.
    Is that Bing Crosby on the drums?
    Of the eight in the band, Gable, Hugh Herbert back there, Jack Benny with the violin, of course. Stokowlski leading the band.
    No idea who those two are after Fred and Ginger.
    And surely those two guys aren't supposed to be Jerry Colonna and Ned Sparks.
    Greta Garbo dancing with Stokowlski. Mickey Rooney with the Baby Snooks, looking like Judy Garland, of course.
    Then Katherine Hepburn with what looks like Ned Sparks.
    Then Nelson Eddy and Jeannette McDonald. Then out of the three ladies and the three guys, the only one I can positively pinpoint is Edward G. Robinson.

    • @johcafra
      @johcafra 7 лет назад +2

      Not Wallace Beery with Baby Snooks but Herman Bing. Beery later says "Aw gee" dancing with someone I'll have to figure out (Marie Dressler? Ethel Barrymore?). The band is conducted by Leopold Stokowski (with homage niftily paid to Wagner) and portrays George Raft (piano), John Barrymore (bass), Joe E. Brown (trombone), James Cagney (trumpet), Hugh Herbert (drums), Jack Benny (violin of course), (possibly) Guy Kibbee (sax), and Clark Gable (clarinet). Further on, Edward Everett Horton and J. Carrol Naish ("Why you don't-a swing?"). The dancing trios include Claudette Colbert, Tyrone Power, Edward G. Robinson and (money's on) James Stewart.
      Yeah, they're fast and furious though I agree with another commentator that some caricatures...stray?...but in fairness you can only be so good with them in animation. And at least there's no blackface though given the times that was actually more respectful towards the entertainers they truly were than you'd think.

    • @johcafra
      @johcafra 7 лет назад +1

      Marie Dressler passed away before this animated short came out, and I doubt they'd have been disrespectful to her with a caricature. So, perhaps Beery dances with Jane Darwell or May Robson. Or perhaps she's your "stock player" Old Woman Who Lives In the Shoe.
      Also, a friend points out that who I think is Naish is instead Henry Armetta. Close call. View clips of each actor in character and judge for yourselves.

    @jimjones2322 7 лет назад +1

    At 3:38 that is definitely Edward Everett Horton on the left (doing his trademark double-take) but who is on the right? He's the only caricature I haven't got figured out thanks to all the comments. He makes a "ch-ch-ch" sound which he must have been known for in his day. Someone named Henry Armetta in an earlier comment and it really does look like him, so I'm going with that...
    The three women dancing I had thought were (L to R) Dorothy Lamour, Rita Hayworth, and Claudette Colbert but someone else said that the one on the left is Kay Francis and I think they are right.
    And who is the guy on the left where Bing Crosby is in the middle and William Powell on the right? Anyone know? My mom who was 10 when this cartoon came out thinks it looks like Danny Kaye, and it does, but he wasn't really known in films by 1939. I think it looks like Red Skelton but it was a tad early for him too. Mom now thinks Spencer Tracy...

    • @johcafra
      @johcafra 7 лет назад +1

      Left of Der Bingle my money's on Tracy though you should also see contemporary pix of Artie Shaw. And asking Horton why he "no swing" is J. Carrol Naish, who earned 2 Oscar nominations with his skill as an "all-purpose ethnic."

    • @johcafra
      @johcafra 7 лет назад +1

      A friend points out that what I think is a caricature of Naish is in fact that of Henry Armetta. Close call if you ask me. Viewing clips of both actors I think they "borrowed" from each other.
