Hare Tonic

 Charles M. Jones. Hare Tonic. USA 1945


Another Bugs/Elmer short but a bit more focused this time out. Elmer is heading home after buying a rabbit for supper. Bugs is flattered, but not keen on the idea, as you can well imagine. Once home, Bugs turns the tables rather quickly on the unsuspecting Mr. Fudd and torments him throughout the short. 

What works is the extent Bugs messes with Elmer and what has to be the lengthiest fourth wall break I've seen in a Warner Bros. short.
