Early Tex Avery, before he had his style fleshed out completely
by llltdesq2002-05-06
9/10

"This is an early Tex Avery short that is not done quite in the style that would mark his later efforts. An early Porky Pig adventure, Avery more or less cut his teeth as a director helping to develop Porky, as well as playing a major role in the development of Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck and Egghead/Elmer Fudd, before leaving Warner Brothers after a dispute with producer Leon Schlesinger and moving to MGM in 1942. Well worth looking for, it was originally in black ad white. Recommended...."

At the door of "MR. & MRS. D. ONNE AND FAMILY", Porky leaves three bottles of milk, saying "Mister, Missus, and family" as he sets them down, the last one having a quintuple baby nipple on it. This is a joke on the quintuplets born to a Canadian couple named Dionne who were in the news continually for years.
