Funny Cartoon from the Woodpecker

Screwdriver, The (1941)

*** (out of 4)

Very funny cartoon has Woody Woodpecker playing a speeder, your typical bird who loves speeding around in his car. He meets a cop whose job is to stop speeders but Woody has plans on driving him insane. This third film to feature Woody is without question the best so far as it contains one great laugh after another but more importantly we get a terrific supporting character. The motorcycle cop, with his big red nose, is hilarious and makes for the perfect duo to Woody. I loved the way the cop can hardly speak or say the right thing and how he's just so dumb that you can't help but really love him. His dumb mind and Woody's overworked imagination work perfectly together and they really manages to get a lot of laughs. One of the highlights is a scene where Woody tries to question the cop on what a speeder sounds like but when Woody goes to make the sound he instead just keeps spitting on the cop.
