In this video, I review the 1949 classic Looney Tunes short 'Mouse Mazurka', directed by Frizz Freleng, with my friend Manny Cruz. The short features a mouse trying to outsmart Sylvester in Slobovia, with a focus on musical timing and the traditional Mazurka dance. We highlight the film's musicality and discuss its comedic aspects, including Sylvester's silent antics and funny gags.
