Egghead politely acknowledges the theatre audience when he enters the picture in Cinderella Meets Fella (1938). He doesn’t just tip his hat.
The cartoon ends the way you’d expect a Tex Avery cartoon to end—Cinderella is in a theatre watching the cartoon she was in, then climbs back into the cartoon before she and Egghead leave it and go into the theatre to watch a newsreel. To think the same studio was inflicting Buddy on people just a couple of years earlier.
Egghead is in his Joe Penner mode here.
Danny Webb is Egghead/Prince; Berneice Hansell squeals as Cinderella and it sounds like Elvia Allman as the fairy godmother. The Duke of Brittingham is the credited story man.
I'm surprised we don't hear a pop as he does that.
ReplyDeleteOnly time that Egghead really amused me was his brief scene in Quackbusters.
ReplyDelete"It's unbelievable!"
Literally the first image that comes to my mind when I think of Egghead.
