Avis à la une
Bugs is being chased by two of these hill-billies, who happen to be brothers and are looking for some animals to kill.
The first part of this short film is nothing special, but in the second part things all burst out into a song, sung in part by Bugs and it involves a great dance by the three characters. When Bugs takes over the song he makes the hill-billies do these crazy things like dancing with pigs and stuff like that. Very good song, check it out!
Great fun, in particular in it's second part: 7/10.
What are they talking about, violent? Nobody could ever take the violence in this gem seriously. I love square dancing, and I love this cartoon. I used to listen for the opening of Bugs singing, "I love mountain music " as my cue that my favorite cartoon was about to air. Put it back on the television rotation, please, oh TV moguls who have decided it's politically incorrect or whatever. Todays kids are missing out.
I have read that Mel Blanc wrote part of the square dance patter. All I can say is I'm glad I never had him (or his alter ego, Bugs Bunny) as my square dance caller! But I'm tickled pink to watch the Martin brothers dance to his tune.
HILLBILLY HARE is likely the most violent cartoon ever created. But, the violence is not the brainless "Tom and Jerry" variety, despite the fact that the "do-gooders" lump this in with that garbage.
The violence that permeates H-H is motivated, timed and distinctly mired in hilarity. I simply cannot square-dance (not that I really ever WANTED TO) because of the fear I'll latch into the "grab a fencepost, hold it tight; whallop your partner with all your might" cadence.
Without a doubt, the removal of this cartoon from television (the thought police even keep it of of CARTOON NETWORK) badly hurt the nation's sense of absurd humor. Thank God for the video!

[Bugs slowly takes off his disguise, while jukebox plays "Skip to my Lou, my Darling" and then starts fiddling a violin & unplugs jukebox, while singing, leading Curt and Pumpkinhead Martin outside with a musical voice]
Bugs Bunny: Promenade across the floor, sashay right on out the door, out the door and into the glade, and everybody promenade. Step right up, you're doin' fine; I'll pull your beard, you pull mine; yank it again like you did before, break it up with a tug of war. Now into the creek and fish for the trout, dive right in and flap about; trout, trout, pretty little trout; one more splash and come right out. Shake like a hound dog, shake again, wallow around in the old pigpen, wallow some more, you all know how; roll around like an old fat sow. Allemande left with your left hand, follow through with a right and left brand; now lead your partner, the dirty old thing; follow through with an elbow swing. Grab a fencepost hold it tight, whomp your partner with all your might; hit him in the shin, hit him in the head; hit him again, the critter ain't dead. Whomp him low and whomp him high, stick your finger in his eye. Pretty little rhythm, pretty little sound; bang your heads against the ground. Promenade all around the room, promenade like a bride and groom. Open up the door and step right in, close the door and into a spin. Whirl, whirl, twist and twirl, jump all around like a flying squirrel. Now, don't you cuss and don't you swear, just come right out and form a square. Now right hand over and left hand under, both join hands and run like thunder; over the hill and over the dale. Duck your head and lift your tail. Don't you stray and don't you roam, turn around and promenade home. Corn in the crib and wheat in the sack, turn your partner and promenade back.
Bugs Bunny: [Bugs' normal voice] And now you're home, bow to your partner, bow to the gent, across the hall.
[Martin brothers weakly shook hands, after their deep fall, and lay across a small creek, where they landed]
Bugs Bunny: And that is all.
