Mouse-Warming
''Mouse-Warming'' is a 1952 Warner Bros. ''Looney Tunes'' short, directed by Chuck Jones. The cartoon was released on September 6, 1952 and stars Claude Cat in his final solo cartoon. The title is a play on " housewarming". Plot In a garden, a wind-up toy truck labelled under ACME Moving Co. pulls up to a mousehole door, and two moving mice move the contents of the van into the hole. Afterwards, a young girl mouse and her parents move in. The girl mouse soon sees a boy mouse driving a motorized hot rod toy into his garage and walking up to his own mousehole. When he sees her, the boy mouse instantly falls head over heels in love. He quickly empties his sugar bowl of the one sugar cube in it, and takes the empty bowl over to the girl mouse's home. However, Claude Cat sees him and tries to eat the boy mouse, but he escapes back to his mousehole. Claude tries to grab him but ends up getting his hand caught in a mousetrap. Later on, the boy mouse tries using a pipeline to sneak past C ...

Claude Cat
Claude Cat is an animated cartoon character in the ''Looney Tunes'' and '' Merrie Melodies'' series of cartoons from Warner Brothers. Character biography Claude Cat had his origins in several other cat characters used by animator Chuck Jones from 1943 to 1946. These cats were mostly similar in appearance and temperament, with black fur and anxious personalities. For example, in the 1943 film '' The Aristo-Cat'', Jones paired his unnamed cat against the mind-manipulating mouse duo, Hubie and Bertie. In the 1943 film '' Fin'n Catty,'' the same cat has a manipulation with water and a goldfish in the style of Sylvester and Tweety. He also appeared in '' Odor-able Kitty'' (1945; the debut of Pepé Le Pew), and in the 1946 film '' Roughly Squeaking'' (this early version of Claude was his last appearance with Hubie and Bertie before his official redesign in 1949). Jones redesigned the neurotic feline for the 1949 film '' Mouse Wreckers'' (perhaps to distinguish him from Friz Fre ...

Films With Screenplays By Michael Maltese
A film, also known as a movie or motion picture, is a work of visual art that simulates experiences and otherwise communicates ideas, stories, perceptions, emotions, or atmosphere through the use of moving images that are generally, since the 1930s, synchronized with sound and (less commonly) other sensory stimulations. Etymology and alternative terms The name "film" originally referred to the thin layer of photochemical emulsion on the celluloid strip that used to be the actual medium for recording and displaying motion pictures. Many other terms exist for an individual motion-picture, including "picture", "picture show", "moving picture", "photoplay", and "flick". The most common term in the United States is "movie", while in Europe, "film" is preferred. Archaic terms include "animated pictures" and "animated photography". "Flick" is, in general a slang term, first recorded in 1926. It originates in the verb flicker, owing to the flickering appearance of early films. ...
