BETTY BOOP: THE QUEEN OF CARTOONS (A&E 1/1/95) RARE!!! HARD TO FIND!!! Richard Fleischer, Max Fleischer

Born during the darkest days of the Great Depression, Betty Boop began life as a dog—a curvaceous canine cabaret singer. With floppy ears that soon transformed into earrings, she evolved within the constantly morphing universe of Fleischer Studios cartoons to become animation’s first true leading lady, enchanting audiences around the world. Ninety-five years after her silver-screen debut, Betty Boop remains a glamorous international icon.

BIOGRAPHY presents the fascinating story of Betty Boop, tracing her journey from her first appearance on August 9, 1930, in Dizzy Dishes to her enduring status as a modern female role model. Richard Fleischer, son of legendary animator Max Fleischer, explores the creation and evolution of his father’s most famous character and reveals how Betty’s flapper style and disarmingly innocent sexuality ultimately drew the attention of Hollywood’s morality watchdog, the Hays Office, leading to censorship of her films.

Featuring rare clips from Betty’s classic cartoons—including her unforgettable duet with Cab Calloway in Minnie the Moocher—this documentary shows why Fleischer Studios and Betty Boop are widely credited with revolutionizing the animation industry.

Nearly a century after she first came to life on the drawing board, Betty Boop is still a star. BETTY BOOP chronicles the remarkable history of an ever-charming American icon-the undisputed Queen of Cartoons.
