Pratice Makes Perfect

4CKApril 23, 2007

In this Columbia Fable.. Scrappy tries to practice his piano lessions to impress his mother and music teacher. But..Little brother Oopey disrupts the lessions and does everything that he can to make his brother miserible. Unable to tolerate the brat's nonsense any further? Scrappy chases Oppey all over the house and like Oliver Hardy. Has every indignty done to him. The film is full of funny and surreal sight gags..Oopey turning on an old fashion washing machine and Poor Scrappy being pulled into the device by two mechanical hands and after being washed and soaped rised and taken out to dry. He is left standing in his poka dot boxer shorts,socks and t shirt. The pair run thru the house to the strains of classical music and they end up swining from an old fashion mobile clothes line. This is the funniest film of the series..even though it's not a typical Scrappy cartoon. It's still the best one of the series! I hope and pray that whoever owns the rights to these cartoons? They will rerelease them to dvd very soon? 4CK.
