The Dover Boys at Pimento University, Warner Bros., 1942
Color, Sound
Directed by Chuck Jones, written by Ted Pierce (later “Tedd”). Jones said of this short that it was the first funny one that he did, after all of his cutesy mouse shorts. This cartoon was based on a book that he’d read as a child. Some gags “…the fun loving member of the trio” were lifted right from the old book. Jones pointed out that it was as if the other two weren’t “fun loving”. (From “Chuck Reducks” (1996))
