Falling Hare

About This Movie

Falling Hare is a charming 1943 gem from Robert Clampett, blending adventure, animation, and comedy in a way that feels both whimsical and sharp. The setting at a U.S. Army airfield gives it a unique backdrop, where Bugs Bunny, lounging with a carrot, cheekily dismisses the idea of gremlins causing mischief. The pacing is brisk, typical of the era, yet allows moments for Bugs’ signature wit to shine through. The playful atmosphere is enhanced by the lively animation and practical effects, making those chaotic scenes with the gremlins feel alive and unpredictable. It's this blend of humor and a nod to wartime themes that makes Falling Hare stand out amidst the multitude of short animated features from that time.
