From Hand to Mouse

One of the one-shot cartoons from Warner Bros. features a gullible lion repeatedly tricked by a manipulative rodent. The racial stereotypes in "From Hand to Mouse" are unpleasant, but the rest of the cartoon is a hoot (including a scene of WWII-era rationing). I looked at the dates of Warner's cartoon releases, and it turns out that we're a few days away from this one's 75th anniversary.

I understand that this cartoon is based on one of Aesop's fables. I unfortunately have not had as much exposure to them as I would like. The ones that I know got depicted - in fractured form - on "Rocky and Bullwinkle". "The Lion and the Mouse" is not one that I've seen from there.

Anyway, it's a funny cartoon. I recommend it.
