Un lapin à Manhattan

Now a big star living in the wealthy suburbs of LA with the other movie stars, Bugs is approached by the press to print his autobiography. Bugs tells the story of how he was born in humble surroundings in the Lower East Side, in particular an interaction with a group of dogs when he was a young man.

This film opens well, with a knowing star expose of Bugs in his `real life ` personae as film star, having been in so many cartoons. We take the chance to hear his life story, although in reality this only serves to set up a scene between Bugs and a big rough East Side bulldog. The action is typical for Bugs cartoons and is pretty enjoyable, the film never really makes great use of it being in New York – only really using general buildings as opposed to landmarks but this isn't a real problem.

Bugs is his usual self and is funny for it. The bulldog is not one of his strongest foils but is a strong character and works well with Bugs to create funny scenes throughout the film. The film has plenty of nice jokes; including one about dogs and `A tree grows in Brooklyn' which I've seen before in a Pepe Le Phew film!

Overall an enjoyable short that Bugs fans will like as it delivers all that we love him for!
