A bit harsh...

5/10

"'Judge For A Day (1935)' is a short film starring Betty Boop (IMDb lists it as part of a TV series, but it was actually released theatrically like most (if not all) of the Boop-starring shorts). The piece starts out showing Boop make her way into work and come across a variety of what she refers to as 'pests'. Then, she fantasies about the punishments she would dole out to the perpetrators of these irking actions. The piece is decent enough for what it is, but it isn't especially entertaining overall. It has a strange structure and a couple of really unmemorable songs...."

πŸ’‘ Did You Know?

The parrot's squawking "You nasty man!" and "Don't never do that!" refer to the 1934 Alice Faye song, "You Nasty Man."
