"Having just seen a couple of Warner cartoons featuring a character named Little Blabbermouse, I've now watched another Warner cartoon with another mouse named Sniffles who now talks constantly. He's one of several elements that make this Chuck Jones entry a very funny outing.

💡 Did You Know?
The backgrounds in THE UNBEARABLE BEAR are way ahead of their time for 1943. Director Chuck Jones experiments with large abstract mono-color blocks to suggest settings rather than the traditional more detailed drawings. Jones would return to, and expand upon this technique in cartoons he directed from the late 1940's through the 1960's.
