Hello everyone, today I’m reacting to 1941 animated short “Hollywood steps out” directed by Tex Avery, The cartoon features caricatures of over 40 Hollywood celebrities.
A bird's-eye view of Los Angeles is shown with searchlights moving to a conga beat. The action takes place in the famed Ciro's nightclub, where the Hollywood stars are having dinner and feeling the rhythm’s of South America hosted by bing Crosby.

    Here’s a few of the celebs: The first guy was Carey Grant, and he referenced two of his movies, ‘My Favorite Wife’ and ‘The Awful Truth’. Johnny Weissmuller was an Olympic swimmer and the original actor for Tarzan. Anne ‘Ms. Rand’ was a famous fan dancer, giving her trademark fans to the coat check girl while leaving herself little else to wear. The stammering guy was Jimmy Stewart, and one of his most famous films was ‘Mr. Smith Goes to Washington’. Mickey Rooney was trying to lend money from his ‘dad’ to pay for his $50 meal, but when neither could pay, they had to work off their debt by washing dishes in the kitchen. I don’t remember the name of the ‘terrible’ dancers, but in real life, they were the greatest dancers of their age, hence the ‘bad dancing’ joke. The ‘G’ man was J. Edgar Hoover, head of the FBI, and his nickname was ‘The G Man’. The guy with the big eyes, mustache and binoculars was Jerry Colonna, a famous comedian who was famous for, among other things referencing a song called ‘Who’s Yehoodi?’ about an unknown man, who in this case is the invisible man sitting next to him. And Bing Crosby always bet on horse races, but he never won. So the horse and hockey are trying to coax him back to the track. That’s all I know

    The ones I know... The "woman" at the end is Groucho Marx. "Carrot Top's grandfather" is Harpo Marx. "Gee" man was J. Edgar Hoover. The woman with the huge feet is Greta "I Van' To Be Alone" Garbo. Bing Crosby was known back then for the horse races. Running gag in some WB cartoons: Bing's horse *still* hasn't come in yet! Jimmy Stewart was the stammering guy afraid to dance, and he was famous for, among other movies, "Mr. Smith Goes To Washington".

    3:21 "Pitching pennies." A child's game that could get grown-ups fired for gambling back in the day. Detailed on Wikipedia. 6:55 Peter Lorre! Star of Fritz Lang's _M, The Man Who Knew Too Much, The Maltese Falcon, Casablanca,_ Disney's _20,000 Leagues Under the Sea_ and _Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea,_ Lorre inspired several minor characters in Warner Brothers cartoons, including a fish that shoots itself in the head (!!).

    I agree that this would be fun to do again today. Can you see Tom Cruise, Lady Gaga, Snoop Dogg, and other larger than life characters being caricatured as if at the Oscars today? That would be hilarious! This also shows that fame is fleeting. So many of those stars were once household names, but few are today.

    I always liked the original looney tunes growing up but by the 80s and 90s the cultural references were dated and I just didn’t always understand them. Even for my parents this would been dated and my grandmother would have only been 2 the year this was released.
