Roquefort gets balletic as Percy chases him with a makeshift baseball bat. The scene has some stretch in-betweens.
Tom Morrison is responsible for the story and Mannie Davis is the director. I think Terry fans can guess whose animation this is.

Heraus, Mouse
An old plot gets reused in Runaway Mouse, a 1953 Terrytoon. Little Roquefort the mouse walks out on Percy the cat. But then the mouse misses the cat and the cat misses the mouse. They get back together at the end and the chase resumes.

ReplyDeleteWith fish on the fryer? (Well, it IS Friday).
DeleteYes
DeleteIf it's a "catholic tire," shouldn't it also be "fish on the friar"?
DeleteAs a Friday fish observer I resent this!
DeleteFrom these stills you'd think the cartoon is better than it is.

ReplyDeletePeople complain about Little Roquefort, but he’s a million times better than anything Gene Deitch did at Terrytoons.
