- Quotes
Bogart: [Closing lines] Well, time's up, shorty. Where's my rabbit?
Elmer Fudd: Pwease, Mr. Bogart. I couldn't get a wabbit. I twied and I twied.
Bogart: Oh, yeah? Well, I guess there's just one thing left for me to do.
[reaches into his coat pocket]
Elmer Fudd: Don't! Pwease, don't!
Bogart: [Pulling out a handkerchief to wipe his brow] Baby will just have to have a ham sandwich, instead.
Bugs Bunny: Baby?
[Bugs comes out of his hiding place and hops onto Bogart's table, placing himself on the dinner plate as the main course. Sitting there is "Baby" - Lauren Bacall]
Bugs Bunny: Remember, garçon. The customer is always right. If it's rabbit baby wants, rabbit baby gets.
[Bugs then howls and wolf whistles at Bacall]

STILL RELEGATED BY many as being strictly kids' stuff, the animated Cartoon short has slowly gained its proper place and commensurate dignity in the art of cinema. An objective viewing of any good, cross sampling of these 10 minute surrealist comedies would probably surprise many of their staunchest critics.
TAKE INTO CONSIDERATION today's honored "guest", SLICK HARE (Warner Brothers Pictures, 1947). The madcap "plot" consists of a customer's desire to order Roast Rabbit and all of the complications that spring-up between customer and waiter. Then factor in that the principal characters involved in this mêlée are Customer(Humohrey Bogart), Waiter (Elmer Fudd) and the bone of contention, the Rabbit (Bugs Bunny).
ADD IN SOME fine and genuinely funny gags; along with a whole company of Hollywood caricatures; a list of which would do Hirschfeld proud, and whatta ya have? You'd have a top flight comic romp, animated or live action. For all of its gag happenings, the film rolls along at an unbelievably brisk rate; with the ending coming along all too quickly.
THE CRITICISMS WE hear about the short involve the inescapable fact that the Hollywood folks spoofed as well as the contemporary nature of the the then recent occurrences, leaves a modern audience in a bit of puzzlement.
THIS WE CAN understand; having failed recognition of unknown Cowboy as Gary Cooper in the Bob Hope starring vehicle, ALIAS JESSE JAMES (Hope Enterprises/United Artists, 1959). Being about 12 years old at the time and an avid TV Watcher, quickly identifying Gail Davis (Annie Oakley), James Arness (Matt Dillon), Ward Bond (Major Adams of WAGON TRAIN), Hugh Obrian (Wyatt Earp), Fess Parker (Davy Croket) and Jay Silverheals (Tonto). (Roy Rogers & Trigger were super easy, playin themselves!) But I digress! Now back to SLICK HARE!
THE CAST OF CHARACTERS being lampooned here are basically as well known today as they were in 1947. Furthermore, speaking for those among us who they call "Film Buffs", the Films and Stars of that Golden Age; as well as their Film Credits, are more familiar than an awful lot of current Hollywood. While we do enjoy a certain number of today's cinematic output, we do spend a lot of time on the Oldies; as we had viewed them; being on Turner Classic Movies, Fox Movie Channel and American Movie Classics (the old AMC, that is).
