"GIDDY YAPPING" (Screen Gems/Columbia-1944)

From 1944, we present another notorious entry in Columbia Pictures' "Phantasy" series, made by the Screen Gems cartoon studio. Virtually all of "Giddy Yapping" consists of a hungry delivery horse trying to talk his window-washing boss into giving him time off for lunch! With story by John McLeish, animation by Jim Armstrong and Grant Simmons, and music by Eddie Kilfeather, this cartoon was produced by Dave Fleischer and directed by Howard Swift.
