Penelope Pussycat
Penelope Pussycat is an animated cartoon character, featured in the Warner Bros. classic ''Looney Tunes'' animated shorts along with Pepé Le Pew. Although she is typically a non-speaker, her "meows" and "purrs" (or "le mews" and "le purrs") were most often provided by Mel Blanc using a feminine voice. The character did not originally have a permanent name; she was alternately referred to as "Penelope", "Fifi", and "Fabrette", and animator Chuck Jones' 1960 model sheet calls her "Le Cat". The name Penelope Pussycat was created retroactively for Warner Bros. marketing. The character first appeared in the 1949 short '' For Scent-imental Reasons'', which won an Academy Award. While the skunk had been used in several earlier cartoons since '' Odor-able Kitty'' (1945), the addition of his main love interest in ''For Scent-imental Reasons'' solidified his characterization and the structure of all further Pepé films. In the 1959 short '' Really Scent'', she was voiced by June Foray; in ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] [Amazon] |
Pepé Le Pew
Pepé Le Pew is an animated character from the Warner Bros. ''Looney Tunes'' and ''Merrie Melodies'' series of cartoons, introduced in 1945. Depicted as a French anthropomorphic striped skunk, Pepé is constantly on the quest for love and pursuit of romance but typically his skunk odor causes other characters to run away from him. Although initially a feature character with his own series of shorts, Pepé has drawn increasing criticism as treating the harassment of clearly unwilling women as a subject of humor. The female characters in his films often flee in fear of him, and his behavior is seen as a form of stalking and implied sexual assault. Premise Pepé Le Pew storylines typically involve Pepé in pursuit of a female black cat, whom Pepé mistakes for a skunk ("la belle femme skunk fatale"). The cat, who was retroactively named Penelope Pussycat, often has a white stripe painted down her back, usually by accident (such as by squeezing under a fence with wet white pain ...

Tasmanian Devil (Looney Tunes)

"That was the uniform that Mars wore — that helmet and skirt. We thought putting it on this ant-like creature might be funny. But since he had no mouth, we had to convey that he was speaking totally through his movements. It demanded a kind of expressive body mechanics." Marvin was never named in the original shorts — he was referred to as the Commander of Fl ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] [Amazon] |
