Fantastic moment!
Amazing to think of all the work that would have to go into storyboarding and animating in detail what could be considered a ‘mistake’!
This is an amazing moment in animation history, excelled perhaps only by the “Technicolor Ends Here” sign in one of Avery’s other cartoons. This particular gag was later copied in live action by none other than Richard Lester, in his pre-Beatles musical IT’S TRAD, DAD!
Thank you thank you thank you!
Just today I was talking about this character and for the life of me I couldn’t think of his name, or even how to appropriately describe him. “He was a wolf!” really wasn’t helping anyone too terribly much.
He’s just known as the Big Bad Wolf due to his first appearance in Red Hot Riding Hood, yes?
