Additional Information about the Theatrical Cartoon Have You Got Any Castles (Video)

The second of Frank Tashlin's trilogy of book-come-to-life cartoons.

The cartoon begins with Mr. Hyde, Frankenstein, the Phantom of the Opera and Fu Manchu menacing the audience, then doing a pansy dance and clapping hands.

Alexander Woollcott requested that his caricature as "The Town Crier" in this cartoon be cut from all reissues of the short after his death. Thus, after the cuckoo clock sounds and the camera pans over the library, only the shadow of the Town Crier appears, which then fades out to the books being presented.

Cab Calloway, W.C. Fields, Greta Garbo and William Powell are also caricatured.
