Speedy's second appearance

Speedy Gonzales is another one of my favorite Looney Tunes characters, along with Bugs Bunny, Pepe le Pew, Tweety, and the lesser-known Hubie and Bertie. This award-winning short is one of my favorites out of Speedy's filmography. Just because I gave it a 9 out of 10 rating doesn't mean it can still be a favorite. This short marks Speedy's second screen appearance, following his debut in a 1953 Bob McKimson cartoon titled "Cat-Tails for Two." But of course, he didn't look the way we know him now.

The sight of Sylvester defending the cheese factory while on all fours amuses me greatly. I also love the pseudo-Spanish conversation between Speedy and the mouse villager.
