Betty Boop: Not Now
Get the Flash Player to see this content.
A noisy cat is preventing Betty Boop from getting any sleep at night. When Betty asks the cat to be quiet, it replies “not ne-ow”. Pudgy tries to chase the cat away, and after much trouble, he seemingly succeeds . . . until all the cats in the neighborhood appear outside Betty’s window.

This Betty Boop cartoon contains none of the “adult content” or cool jazz that sets the best of them in a field apart but it is delightful fun for children of all ages.

This film uses thinly disguised cartoon representations of the parties to the race struggle in the USA per 1930-something.
The Black Cat (and his cohorts)eventually act more like monkeys, and the White Dog as a somewhat naive, ineffectual boob motivated by the protection of peace in Betty Boops urban bedroom, from which the Blacks are excluded.
The nighttime wailing of the Blacks disturbs Betty, she can’t sleep. White Dog can ignore it all, until Betty uses the word, “Cat” to which Dog is apparently hard-wired to recognise even in deep sleep. He is overwhelmed by Gangs of Blacks eventually.
The White bedroom is again reconsituted, but the howling of the Blacks is only increased.
