Tortilla Flaps
THe main trouble with McKimson's Speedy cartoons is that they're too overburdened with dialogue (as per late-McKimson tradition)......not enough balance between dialogue and pain-and-violence gags.
This one's a bit above-par, however, with a great fall-guy character. I could've done with a few more explosions, though.
Tortilla Flaps
One of the best Speedy cartoons ever. The pacing is exquisite.
