Directed by Friz Freleng and written by Michael Maltese, "Here Today, Gone Tamale" is a very good Warner Bros. cartoon starring Speedy Gonzales and Sylvester the cat. Sylvester guards a ship loaded with cheese, forcing Speedy to once again become a "cheese thief" for all his friends.
My two favorite scenes from this cartoon: At the beginning, one mouse inquires another mouse about the cheese famine, and the other mouse tells him to shut his cheese trap! While chasing Speedy, Sylvester gets locked inside a storage room filled with Limburger, where he turns blue in the face!
"Here Today, Gone Tamale" can be found along with a bunch of other Speedy Gonzales cartoons on the Looney Tunes Golden Collection Volume 4 Disc 3.
