Your Beatin' Heart

Tom’s captured Jerry in Kitty Foiled (1947). Let’s bring in the heart-pounding joke, says Joe Barbera.



Jerry tries to shove the heart back to where it should be.



Barbera uses the joke later in the cartoon with a bird helping Jerry. We get a butt version.



And speaking of butts, there's a butt walk by Tom.



Ken Muse, Ed Barge, Irv Spence and Irving Levine receive animation credits in this short.

  1. The butt walk later shows up in Rock-a-Bye Bear (1952).

  2. Because, you know, MGM wanted to impress movie goers with how classy their films were...you can't spell "class" without...um, never mind.
