Back in the early 1930s, Van Beuren made a series of Tom & Jerry cartoons that bore no similarity whatsoever to the classic MGM characters of the 1940s and 50s. Until I saw "Redskin Blues", I would have said ALL the original Tom & Jerry cartoons sucked...but this one was actually very enjoyable...but also is bound to offend many who watch it today due to changing sensibilities.
Tom & Jerry are somehow being attacked by marauding Indians...in 1932! They are eventually captured and before they get burned alive, Tom & Jerry play some music and then alert the cavalry....and not only does the cavalry show up, but airships, airplanes, tanks and pretty much any sort of military that could have shown up out west...including a battle ship! This is all completely ridiculous...which is exactly why I liked it. Funny and the animation, though relatively cheap compared to some other studios, is quite effective...but don't say I didn't warn you...and the politically correct out there might just wanna skip this one.
