Friz Freleng, Southern Fried Rabbit, USA 1953
The first Sam cartoon of the 1953, and yeesh.
Bugs is having a poor crop of carrots this year, but when reading of a bumper crop in Alabama he decides Dixie is the place he wants to be. Pity he's shot at by Colonel Sam. When reminded that the Civil War ended 90 years ago, Sam snaps back that "he ain't no clock watcher!"
Can Bugs outfit the gray and the bold? Can he do it without resorting to blackface?
Yeah, this one didn't age well. Even by the standards of 1953 this is asking a bit much.
