Eatin' On The Cuff (1942) ***

An unusual Bob Clampett cartoon mixing animation with some live-action footage. The story is about a foxy female spider trying to seduce a moth, who must hurry to his wedding with a bee. The bride, stood up at the altar, comes to his rescue and defeats the spider, but still says "my hero" at the end. Old habits die hard. A very interesting and original cartoon.
