Didn't do too much for me

This is a Warner Bros. cartoon from almost 75 years ago. It is one of the more known cartoons that do not feature the regular guys like Daffy, Bugs etc. It runs for 9 minutes, which is 2 minutes longer as these cartoons from that time usually do. But that's also all the differences. Chuck Jones, Ted Pierce and Mel Blanc are in here as usual for Warner Bros. Maybe you could interpret the Dover reference as an indirect sign of American support for Britain during these dark days of World War II. In any case, the Dover boys never got more than this short movie I think and I can see why. I found none of the Dover Boys particularly memorable. If anybody somehow was not forgettable in here, then it was the antagonist, maybe also the woman. These two also shared the only funny moments for me, namely when she keeps screaming for help yet always interrupts that state in order to beat the crap out of the bad guy. That had something hilarious to it. That's all unfortunately. The three boys I found very forgettable. Not recommended.
