Just when you thought the Fleischer cartoons couldn’t get any weirder. Animation Historian Jerry Beck will present a selection of cartoon goodies that stand out solely because of their oddness. Bizarre short-run characters in newly restored prints, featuring Gabby from GULLIVER’S TRAVELS, an episode from Flintstones precursor The Stone Age Cartoons, Fleischer’s take on Poe’s The Raven, and more. The strangest Koko The Clown, Popeye The Sailor, and Betty Boop shorts also make the cut.
