Beginning with an introduction from "Elmer Fudd", who struggles with his "w", Johann Strauss provides the musical bedrock for a rather fun escapade for "Bugs Bunny" and "Porky Pig" on an hunt; and then a very young "Daffy Duck" and a rather elegant family of swans who dance stylishly to the "Blue Danube" with a sort of "Ugly Duckling" scenario (whilst being pursued by a hungry vulture). The second of these two has more substance to it, but both are engaging with vividly coloured animations and plenty of humour.
