English More cute and funny than really funny (I definitely like the original black and white version better than the color version), but you can see that back then Fred Avery was already preparing for the time when he would become Tex. The film is full of imaginative visual gags, hands, necks and cars stretch and shrink as if they were made of rubber, wrestlers in the ring turn into a steam train so believably that people in the audience have the impression that they are sitting in a real carriage... And so on. ()
