The Sour Puss is a 1940 Warner Bros. Looney Tunes cartoon directed by Bob Clampett.[1] The short was released on November 2, 1940, and stars Porky Pig.[2]
Plot
[edit]Porky excitedly plans a fishing trip with his cat, promising fish for dinner. The cat's antics lead to a comedic chain of events as they encounter a flying fish that outsmarts them both. Eventually, they mistake a shark for the elusive catch, prompting a hasty retreat. In the end, the shark humorously remarks on the absurdity of their adventure as the cartoon concludes.
