Elmer Fudd chases Bugs Bunny into a movie house, where the "wascawwy wabbit" creates a lot of trouble for the frustrated hunter. And that's "Hare Do" in a nutshell.
My two favorite highlights from this cartoon include the following. First, when Elmer uses his "Wabbit Detector" to track down Bugs, Bugs' voice is heard through the device's speaker, telling Elmer he's getting warmer, then colder, then warmer, etc., and eventually leading the hapless hunter off a cliff. And second, "Do you have a message for Mr. Fudd?" Splat!
"Hare Do" was directed by the wonderful Friz Freleng, who never seemed to care for Elmer Fudd's stupidity. Maybe that's why, in this and other cartoons Friz directed, Elmer is quite crafty and doesn't seem to be as much of an idiot as he would be in cartoons directed by, say, Chuck Jones or Bob McKimson. But, as expected, Bugs still has the last laugh, and Elmer simply cannot outwit him, no matter how hard he tries.
