The most unusual penny arcade ever!, 20 July 2002

This is an unusual arcade to say the least! Interestingly enough, the
Fleischers also did a Popeye centering around penny arcades some years
later
that is considerably different in style and mood from this one. The Betty
Boop series as a whole had a much different feel from the Popeye series,
which is understandable, as the intent of the two series are much
different
as well. Betty is making change in a penny arcade and the gags are mostly
sight gags (actually, primarily Bimbo drooling over Betty for about a
third
of the short) and it is bizarre and occasionally a bit creepy. Marvelous
short, but a strange one. In print and available. Well worth watching.
