Featured review
When I was a child, I quite frequently watched a tape containing four Looney Tunes/Merrie Melodies cartoons. All were good except for one that I had to get my mother to turn off before the end because of my sensitive hearing. 'The Henpecked Duck,' however, which I believe was probably the first on the tape, was my favourite by far, and it was the one that I often wanted rewound to the beginning over and over again. In the present day, as soon as I finally found this video somewhere and watched it again (without sound, so I missed any dialogue), I remembered almost the entire Looney Tune perfectly just with the visual presentation of the animation. This is the cartoon that drove my sister, my father and my brother absolutely crazy, and this is the cartoon that I would have given an 11 out of 10 several years ago if I could have, and that here today I give a 10 out of 10 because it is still hysterically funny, even without sound.
Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaWhile doing tricks with his egg, Daffy refers to being ready for Edward Bowes, who hosted the famed "Major Bowes Amateur Hour" radio program.
- GoofsIn the computer colorized print, instead of the correct 1941-1945 theme, the 1936-1937 theme plays over the opening titles.
- Alternate versionsThis cartoon was colorized in 1968 by having every other frame traced over onto a cel. Each redrawn cel was painted in color and then photographed over a colored reproduction of each original background. Needless to say, the animation quality dropped considerably from the original version with this method. The cartoon was colorized again in 1992, this time with a computer adding color to a new print of the original black and white cartoon. This preserved the quality of the original animation.
