    A very enjoyable, action-packed cartoon

    Frank Tashlin's 'Little Beau Porky' is an enjoyable cartoon that showcases Tashlin's skill as a director with some trademark extreme close-ups, fast moving action and deft storytelling. Casting Porky as a member of the foreign legion who must protect the fort against the villainous Ali Mode single handed, 'Little Beau Porky' moves at quite a lick once it gets going. The build up is fairly slow but contains some great sequences including Porky's grilling by his commanding officer and an uneasy game of Echo through the fort entrance. It all comes to a satisfying if predictable climax making 'Little Beau Porky' a very enjoyable cartoon. A final noteworthy point is that 'Little Beau Porky' contains the roots of two other, superior cartoons. The camel in this short is clearly a forerunner for Humpty Bumpty from Bob Clampett's completely bonkers 'Porky in Egypt' while the evil Ali Mode is extremely similar to the frightening Lawyer Goodwill from the following year's 'The Case of the Stuttering Pig', one of Tashlin's great masterpieces.

    Decent Porky Short

    Little Beau Porky (1936)

    ** 1/2 (out of 4)

    Porky joins the foreign legion but he's upset to learn that he can't fight but instead he's given various boring chores that just don't sit too well with the pig.

    There are a lot of Arab stereotypes as you might expect from a cartoon made in 1936 but this really doesn't hurt or help the film much. On the whole this here is one of the lesser Porky Pig shorts that were made up to this point because there's really not too much of a story going on and sadly there aren't too many laughs either. The highlight of the film is a scene later in the picture involving a horse but I won't give too much away to prevent the gag from being ruined. As you'd expect there's some nice animation and it moves at a nice pace but there's still not too much here.

    Porky as the root of the so-called War on Terrorism

    Current events in the Middle East give us Americans an incentive to watch Porky Pig's early cartoon "Little Beau Porky". This one came out back when the famously stuttering swine was less than two years old and looked like a walking heart attack (and Joe Dougherty was still providing his voice, as Warner Bros. hadn't yet hired Mel Blanc).

    Anyway, the plot goes something like this. Porky is a soldier in a foreign legion outpost in either the Arabian desert or the Sahara. He always gets the most menial jobs and isn't allowed to participate in missions to trap the dastardly sheik Ali Mode (the Termite Terrace crowd loved to give people crazy, pun names, didn't they?). But when Ali Mode - who bears a mild resemblance to Osama bin Laden - attacks the fort, Porky pretty much becomes Rambo.

    Obviously, the Arab stereotyping makes it a little harder to laugh at this cartoon. It's mostly funny just because of some of the gags they pull. As long as we understand the stereotyping, then it's a pretty entertaining cartoon.

    Back when they made this cartoon, they probably never imagined that sixty to seventy years later, a lot of the world's focus would center on the Middle East. "Syriana" should explain it all.

    Not among Porky's but still hugely enjoyable

    Porky is not one of WB/Looney Tunes' strongest or funniest characters and his effectiveness as a lead character has been a mixed bag but he is likable and works very well as a support character with other stronger personalities. Here he takes on a lead role, and is quite funny and endearing. And Little Beau Porky has a huge amount to enjoy, Frank Tashlin was a great if underrated animation director and you can see that clearly. It does have a couple of drawbacks, the pacing is not always consistent with a build up that sets things up a little too slowly and a slightly rushed ending and somehow it does feel odd without the presence of Mel Blanc, Joe Dougherty tries his best as Porky but his stutter has always been overdone to me. The Arab stereotyping will go either way too, I personally wasn't offended but others might. The animation is fluid, well drawn and shaded/coloured with care. The camera angles are very clever and are the prime reason why Tashlin is deserving of more recognition. Carl Stalling's music score is lush and full of character, accentuating every gag and character gesture, and the dialogue even early on has freshness and sharpness. The gags come thick and fast at a wild pace, there are a healthy amount and all of them are funny, the best particularly with the camel uproarious. The pacing is generally solid, and the story while a tad predictable entertains, while the supporting characters compliment Porky well(especially Ali Mode). Billy Bletcher provides witty vocals. All in all, hugely enjoyable though Porky has done better. 8/10 Bethany Cox

    A hidden gem among early Looney Tunes

    This short, which stars Porky Pig as a soldier in the foreign legion undervalued by his superior, would have seemed like quite an artistic accomplishment at the time of its release in 1936. There is a complexity to the animation and character design that foreshadowed the 1940s heyday of Warner Bros cartoons much more than anything else the studio was putting out at the time, and that alone makes this an important watch for Looney Tunes fans. As was the signature style of director Frank Tashlin, there is a very cinematic feel to the angles and lighting. And it's funny, too! The Porky cartoons from before Mel Blanc took on the voice can be pretty hit or miss, but this one's a hit. The later colorized versions mangle the animation, so make sure to watch the black and white version to fully appreciate the animators' work.

    • Versiones alternativas
      This cartoon was colorized in 1968 by having every other frame traced over onto a cel. Each redrawn cel was painted in color and then photographed over a colored reproduction of each original background. Needless to say, the animation quality dropped considerably from the original version with this method. The cartoon was colorized again in 1992, this time with a computer adding color to a new print of the original black and white cartoon. This preserved the quality of the original animation.
