Challenging Sam to a Duel

Look at Bugs Bunny’s fingers in these scenes from Hare Trimmed (1953) and the little moustache twirl for added personality.



If I had to guess, I’d say Virgil Ross and his assistant Warren Batchelder were at work here.

Art Davis, Ken Champin and Manny Perez also animate on this short from the Friz Freleng unit at Warners, with a tidy story from Warren Foster.

  2. I like how this scene ends - Sam stomps off-screen, while Bugs makes an elegant turn to exit after.
