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.

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

      We are the only group in history to talk about things like this.

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