GAY PURR-EE

Gay Purr-ee The openg creds of Gay Purr-ee, a lhly animated 1962 mil edy, hold the promise of a n’t-miss productn: mic by Harold Arlen (”Over the Rabow”), the voic of Judy Garland, Robert Goulet, Red Buttons, Hermne Ggold, Mel Blanc, Pl Fre, and Morey Amsterdam. The predictable endg may satisfy kids — if they’re still payg attentn — but will leave many grown-ups yawng, as Gay Purr-ee did s theatril release.

However, is "cintal" that you have two animated movi about anthropomorphic ts livg the Gay Paree of the Gay Neti, and that the leadg romantic uple both movi are a whe female t and an orange male t. Role-Endg Mismeanor: Chuck Jon's volvement Gay Purr-ee ultimately led to his 1962 dismissal om Warner Bros. Gay of Thron.

Durg s goln age, which stretched at least om 1951-'53, UPA produced some of the ft short films ever ma, any form, at any time the history of cema, films that will be studied and treasured as long as the movg picture self days were long the rearview mirror by the time UPA produced s send and fal feature film, Gay Purr-ee, 1962 (the film was fanced and distributed by Warner Bros., whose own animatn stud had been shut down and replaced by ntractors, cludg former Warner animators). Phht, and to guarantee that his plan will not be terpted, he arrang for Jne Tom and Robpierre to be shanghaied as moers on a ship bound for film's not bound by any joyls logic, and good on for that, but there's a keen difference between this and the go-for-broke fantasy of the old Warner shorts whose anarchic energy Gay Purr-ee is seemgly tryg to mimic. Gay Purr-ee was wrten and nceived by Warner animatn geni Chuck Jon and his wife Dorothy, and very much feels like a late Jon productn, which is not altogether to s cred: by this pot, Jon and his key wrer, Michael Malte, had exhsted the possibili of the surrealistic gag edi where they ma their nam, and Jon had turned to quirky mood piec mostly terted extrem of angular character sign and stylised le drawg backgrounds.

GAY PURR-EE/TRANSCRIPT

There's an "anythg go" sense to his storytellg at this pot that leav even his short films feelg a b arbrary and unformed, and 's all over the fal third of Gay Purr-ee, which ceas to feel like anythg but a llectn of beats signed to get the movie to end rather than the natural ncln to where the story, th as was, had that Gay Purr-ee was ever sold as a great piece of storytellg, nor spe the narrator's promise is much of a great romance.

As far as I n be certa, Gay Purr-ee was the very first animated movie ever marketed as a star vehicle, meang that all of the wo of morn mercial animatn n be laid at s feet - but of urse that's not fair. Garland was a major star, but her primary appeal was her voice, and she anyway spends ls time Gay Purr-ee recg dialogue than she do sgg the many songs wrten for the film by Harold Arlen and E. UPA had won - the year prr to Gay Purr-ee, Disney self had released a "talkg animals a European pal wh ntemporary ic attus" picture the year prr, One Hundred and One Dalmatians, and s angular, graphic character signs and sketchy backgrounds clearly showse the fluence of the UPA mimalist style, even if Disney's featur would never e remotely close to the techniqu of limed animatn, not even the quasi-limed animatn of Gay Purr-ee.

Rtoons, had absorbed that style is self ttament to how ubiquo was, and Gay Purr-ee brgs nothg to the table.
