Hey, That Was the....

A sheriff with Dal McKennon’s stock Western voice walks away after spotting the fugitive Indian he’s looking for. Then he realises what’s happened.

Director Paul J. Smith times each drawing of the take for two frames but moves the background at the same pace as when the sheriff was walking to give the scene a bit of extra movement.



Bob Bentley, Herman Cohen and Ray Abrams are the animators on this short, Chief Charlie Horse (1956). This cartoon features the lamest cartoon “fire dance.” Lantz’s ‘40s animators like Pat Matthews could have done a great job with that scene.
