I. Freleng. A Hare Grows in Manhattan. USA 1947
Moving into 1947 now, and this is a first for Bugs-an adaptation. Yeah, this story was based on a short story that first ran in Coronet back in 1945, in which Bugs detailed his humble beginnings growing up in the rough streets of Manhattan.
The short runs more or less the same. We open with a gossip reporter talking to Bugs about his childhood, who the flashbacks to his carefree days. Bugs, as a youth, is walking through the Lower East Side when a gang of dogs decide to mess with him.
Pity those dogs...
Pretty good and by now they have Bugs' characterization down. He's just going about his day when a stronger foe messes with him and Bugs unleashes pure comic chaos against them.
