Disorder in the Court

shempheadbat:
 ;D  Yah, another good reason to get old (!) is watching the wartime Warner Bros. cartoons, now that I get the jokes!  They borrow a lot from Slip n Satch, and early Cagney and George Raft ("It's a GI-Raft, a giraft a giraft!")... It's amazing how densely packed those old shorts were, when ya give 'em a close, erm... what's a good word for 'scrutiny'?

Pilsner Panther:
Moe does a perfect George Raft imitation in "Crime On Their Hands," flipping a coin in his hand and pulling down the brim of his hat, right after the Stooges enter Squid McGuffey's cafe. Larry follows suit, but Shemp ruins the whole tough-guy act when he tries to pull down the brim of his straw hat, and he breaks it!
