    As one Steve Hooley noted on an academic list I post the contents of Tuesday's Overlooked to:

    Old Man of the Mountain is a great piece of film with hilarious music.
    Always liked that one.

    --Me, too.

    That was a good one! The dancing in it reminds me of some of the "free-style" that the modern singers do. Always liked Cab Calloway.

    Betty Boop has survived. I still see her image everywhere.

    My favorite scene in this one is where Mr. Fish hops out of the puddle to follow her and gets nabbed by Mrs. Fish.
