Fresh Hare

Back


In this short, the rotund early-1940s version of Elmer Fudd is portrayed as a Mountie, in pursuit of Bugs Bunny, who is wanted for being a "screwy wabbit", across the snow-packed tundra (presumably in Canada). The short is one of many that has been subjected to censorship, because of its closing gag. After capturing the rabbit and sentencing him to execution, Elmer asks Bugs if he has one final request or wish. Bugs responds by breaking out into song: "I wish I was in Dixie; hurray, hurray..." A crossfade finds Bugs, Elmer, and the other mounties in blackface performing a minstrel show routine of "Camptown Races".
