I. Freleng. Fresh Hare. USA 1942
This was a short that I never cared for, mostly due to the ending.
Elmer, still fat and now a member of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, is hunting that dangerous prey-WABBITS!
Standard chase between Bugs and Elmer, but the ending was also short. I wasn't aware until a few years ago that the ending sequence was usually cut from broadcasts. Understandable, given the whole blackface/minstrel show bit.
Yeah, at the end Bugs is facing a firing squad and has a last request. "I wish...I wish...I wish I was in Dixie!"
I can honestly say I did not see that ending coming.
