Poor Melissa
10 July 2015
Warning: Spoilers
This is a one of these uncountable 7-minute cartoons from Warner Bros and it was made 65 years ago. The star is Daffy this time and he is out to save Melissa who is kept prisoner at a castle. And she is in all kinds of trouble. Not only is the world's least capable superhero out to rescue her, she also gets in trouble with Porky and Sylvester. All these are voiced by Mel Blanc once again and the filmmaker duo are Chuck Jones and Michael Maltese as always. Melissa is voiced by Bea Benederet (Betty on "Flintstones"). All in all, I did not find this cartoon as funny as many other Looney Toons from that time. The jokes just did not really do that much for me. Maybe this is because I am not familiar with The Scarlet Pimpernel that this cartoon obviously spoofs. So yeah, I cannot recommend it. Better stuff out there from the 1950s.
