For Better or Nurse (1945)

It's unfortunate that the organization behind this rip-off . . .

[6/10 · 11 December 2019]

. . . still is laughing all the way to its piggy bank today, in this our supposedly Modern 21st Century. FOR BETTER OR NURSE is totally plagiarized from a black and white Fleischer cartoon, which was much better (making this 1945 travesty much worse, when compared with the superior original). Rubbing in salt to injury, the nefarious miscreants of the not so "Famous Studio" commit an act of crass trademark infringement against America's beloved Elsie the Cow in an attempt to gain a cheap laugh as "Bluto" is enticing a bull to charge him into a cat and dog clinic. The billboard displaying a bovine "Fifi" is 100% patterned after Borden Milk's esteemed spokes cow, which should have allowed the latter company to sue the fraudulent Famous Brothers for all they may have been worth at the time (probably not very much). As any rate, Today FOR BETTER OR NURSE is best viewed as a sterling example of crass corporate wrong doing, which is seldom entertaining (certainly not the least little bit in this case).
