The Trial of Mr. Wolf (1941)

Review by ccthemovieman-1

The Trial of Mr. Wolf

10/10

The Wolf's Side Of The Story!

Here is yet another take on "Little Red Riding Hood," this one from the wolf's side! By the way, I have yet to see a bad spoof of that famous fairy tale as that story seems to bring out the best in Looney Tunes writers.

This also is hilarious right from the beginning at the court room. Check out the wolf's attire and his shills in the jury, or the Katharine Hepburn imitation by "Red." Even in 1941, some of these cartoons seemed geared more for adults to laugh than kids.

This cartoon really gives a unique on the story as we see a not-so-innocent Little Red Riding Hood, portrayed as a brutal, ruthless accomplice to the furrier "Grandma," who wants to skin the poor old wolf for his hide! This is unbelievable! Read the quotes under "Fun Stuff" on the title page here and you get idea of what you'll see and hear in this wild cartoon, which I found hilarious - especially the bloodthirsty Granny near the end - with spectacular artwork.

Whoever did the Hepburn imitation should be given credit, too, but it's not listed here. The voices, the artwork and the comedy all make this a huge winner, one of the best of the early Looney Tunes cartoons.
