The maddest of madcap animators, Avery piloted Droopy through his exploits at MGM and popularised lechery in cartoon form - Wolfie’s reaction to Swing Shift Cinderella is a touchstone of the WW2 years. Fred “Tex” Avery’s reputation was fading, when the French took up his cause and moved him out of history and into legend. A program of the great Technicolor MGM cartoons in beautiful 35mm is a must see event.
