I've come back a hundred times just so I could hear Betty Boop's rendition of Penthouse Serenade. She was voiced by Mae Questal, but that doesn't necessarily mean that Mae also did the singing. The song When We're Alone as they called it more often in its early days, starts at 2:22. Consistent with the 78 recordings of the time, the orchestra would play the entire song through before the vocals began. EDIT: I just watched Mae on a 1978 Mike Douglas show (Janet from Three's Company was there) and Betty Boop's singing was CLEARLY also Mae Q. Look up the clip...it's fascinating. She sings as Boop in the clip. They actually made a caricature out of Mae to use for Betty Boop's looks.
they say that betty is a caricature of mae but theres avtually a lot of evidence that she is based on helen kane which of course yhey couldnt admit after the lawsuit
Koko and Bimbo: created potion that can turn you white and black Betty: created potion that can make flowers arise instantly, make them able to talk and turn wrecked sadist monster into nice giant flower Maybe Betty should join their lab, she could help a lot
The way the flower faints is kind of realistic And I never thought about it, but it is kinda gruesome how the other two flowers have actual skeletons inside them that remain lol
When I was a kid I thought the monster music was done by Duke Ellington, then later I changed it to Don Redman who did another Betty Boop cartoon soundtrack. The one about the coalmine.
the soundtrack in the second half of the 'toon is actually the Mills Blue Rhythm Band playing "Heat Waves" garylucas.com/www/fleischerei/fleischerei.shtml
I thought I had put in a comment a few years ago when I found the song @04:00 was "Heat Waves" by Mills Blue Rhythm Band. A little funkier than your typical swing music from those days!
@@domagojcapko4152 NO. It was (at least on the surface, I didn't study it deep) because people were sick of the idea of their kids ending up in debauchery... Something more people should care about, instead of letting their kids die in an overdose and whatnot. Though I admit, some of censorship makes things worse. I honestly don't understand why you assume like this. It's as reliable as saying that Abraham Lincoln was a vampire hunter or something. Any time he was, was only in fiction; and so the real man wasn't actually a vampire hunter.
@@Barakalover3 It might have turned into one, but then tell me why, in Uncle Tom's Cabin (which was penned in the mid 1800s,) there are many women referred to as "Mammy" _even by their own Children_ when the book was intended as an anti-slavery book and a Christian book at the same time. It seems like part of it was actually normal at the time, and it was not always a slur, and now people just don't want to be reminded of it. I can understand part of the argument against it, at least. But please don't pretend you lived through it in those years and you have first hand experience with it in those years, because you don't. Online, I've seen some non-seasoned kid arguing against a woman in her 80s that "the 1950s were suppressive to women" when the elderly lady was actually saying "What are you talking about? I was happy as a mother." Point being, please don't be that kid in this situation. I'd think that *the actual woman who lived through it* would have a better say in it than some 16 year old who believes too much of what he listens to.
@@101Volts Thankfully, I'm not a kid, I'm 31 currently. I have never heard of Uncle Tom's Cabin, but I'll look into it. I was quoting my mother who was raised by my racist grandparents. I was told to never say Mammy or Coon. (I thought Pa-Pa was talking about racoons...He was not...)
@@Barakalover3 I'm 32, and I had never read the book until the last month and a half or so. I can and do understand the point of not being racist, sure - but I also am not convinced that "Mammy" specifically was always racist. Though the book does have slave owners talking down to their slaves as "Coon" and such.
@C. Feral lmao just because I know the fucking mami joke is racist doesnt mean ive spent hours looking for racist stuff. maybe it means im just not stupid enough to ignore that racism actually did and doea exist. big shocker right? congrats, just because you dont personally see it, it must not exist huh?
Bendy and the Ink Machine was made in 2017. These cartoons are actual 1930 cartoons, which were made nearly 80 years before Bendy. They say that the creators of the Bendy character were inspired by Bimbo, the dog in this episode.

"It's alive!"
I'm sure I'm not the only one who caught that reference. And I didn't even read the book personally.
Every time in any kind of animation when somebody says that, you know where it comes from.
the funny thing is that it's never said in the book only in the movie which came out 2 years before this cartoon short

Actually, both are incorrect, its Baron Lee.
I have a test tomorrow and I have no idea why I’m watching this cartoon instead of studying
How'd it go?
@@CosmicSponge2004 I graduated and I have a job now, so I think it went well hahahaha
You are.watching it because she's the best. I love her too ❤❤❤❤ because she's my favorite girl 😍
One of fave B.B toons
Pre-code episodes are better, not only for many beautiful views but also much more action
A favorite female cartoon singing one of my favorite songs in homage to great Manhattan!
Lovely, thank you
the soundtrack in the second half of the 'toon is actually the Mills Blue Rhythm Band playing "Heat Waves" garylucas.com/www/fleischerei/fleischerei.shtml
Gary Lucas thanks for the information
Thanks a million, you saved me from a world of pain trying to find it.
The creature became a lovely pansy! Cute and funny ending.
The Fleischer cartoons had a few GAY GAGS.

Don Redman was a great musician and band leader.
this one traumatized me as a kid lol
No shit...
Hooray!!!
We've always knew that Betty Boop was sex image but in this episode, they are not even trying to hide it.
The HAYES CODE thought BETTY BOOP was too SEXY & BETTY BOOP became more modest. As a result BETTY BOOP's popularity declined.
Yes 2:40 these two

The flower
This was shown in colour once
It was shown in colour on Rolf Harris Cartoon Time in 1988.
Used to have it on vhs
Everything was making sense until the chemical monster came to life

Like me eating spoonfuls of Horseradish and Garlic.
Betty: "Ah, you're such a nutsy dope fiend!"
4:08 AMONG US

Vitajazz, that is NOT Jack Mercer. And Mercer was not the voice of Grampy. That was Everett Clark.
I think this episode inspired Bendy and The Ink Machine
I don't think so
Bendy and the Ink Machine was made in 2017. These cartoons are actual 1930 cartoons, which were made nearly 80 years before Bendy. They say that the creators of the Bendy character were inspired by Bimbo, the dog in this episode.
there kind of is an ink machine thing going on with that monster, weird
Possibly. But the 1930s cartoons in general (seemingly mostly 1930 through 1934) are a huge influence on both Bendy and Cuphead.

this was made in the 1930s segregation was still going on so i would expect it
