Every time I go to the Hollywood Bowl -- which is not that often -- I'm reminded of my very favorite Bugs Bunny cartoon.
Different people have different favorite Bugs cartoons. Some put "What's Opera, Doc?" at the top of the list. The Elmer/Daffy/Bugs Hunter trilogy often ranks in the top ten. "The Rabbit of Seville" is very popular. For me, the best Bugs Bunny cartoon of all time is "Long-Haired Hare." In my opinion, it's one of the only "perfect" cartoons ever made.
Without spoiling its "perfection," I'll say that I greatly appreciate how the final frames of "Long-Haired Hare" recall the opening frames. It's Chuck Jones' direction at its best, plus the added thrill of a caricature of Jones as the villain. The script is by Mike Maltese. Bugs is at his (1948) apex, doing a great "Leopold Stokowski" impression, dressing up as a bobby soxer, and justifiably "getting even" like never before or since. I also will always love Bugs' delivery of the line expressing his admiration for the Hollywood Bowl: "Acoustically poifect."
