Who Framed
Roger Rabbit (1988)
In director Robert Zemeckis' award-winning animated-live
action tribute and parody of detective noirs of the 40s:
- the end of the opening toon cartoon (Tummy Trouble)
that remarkably combines animated characters and live actors
- whiskey-voiced Toon-star Baby Herman
- the character of luscious sexpot Jessica Rabbit (Kathleen
Turner's voice, but Amy Irving's voice for singing), including her
sexy and seductive swaggering performance near down-and-out, hard-boiled
private detective Eddie Valiant (Bob Hoskins) of "Why Don't
You Do Right?" at the Ink and Paint Club
- her famous line: "I'm not bad, I'm just drawn
that way"
- the incriminating game of "Patty-cake" played
by gag factory head and Toontown owner Marvin Acme (Stubby Kaye)
and sexy Jessica
- the characters of the Toon Patrol
- the cab trip to Toontown
- Judge Doom's (Christopher Lloyd) threat to 'dip'
Jessica and Roger but his own demise in the bubbling acid
- Eddie and Roger's noisy wet kiss
- the joyous conclusion with Porky Pig delivering his
famous "That's all folks!"
