comment |
The Night Before Christmas is a 1941 animated short film (8 minutes) directed by William Hanna and Joseph Barbera.It is a Tom and Jerry cartoon. Tom and Jerry are up to their usual antics. It's Christmas Eve, and Jerry creeps out of his Mouse Hole and has fun for a while, bouncing around a teddy bear and goofing with a stuffed lion. But eventually he draws the attention of Tom, who chases him around for a while. Jerry winds up fleeing the house, exiting through the mail slot in the door—and then the cartoon takes a surprising turn. |

Under the Mistletoe: Jerry stops Tom from chasing him by holding up a mistletoe and making a cute smoochy face at him. Tom then blushes and turns away shyly, only to have Jerry kick him in the rear. |

comment |
Harmless Electrocution: In two different ways. Jerry jumps into the electric light socket of a Christmas ornament and merely lights up. Tom grabs Jerry, and of course Tom is shocked, but in cartoon fashion he recovers. |

Nobody Here but Us Statues: In order to hide from Tom, Jerry stands to attention along a line of toy soldiers. Unfortunately, he still sticks out because the soldiers tower over him. |

Oddball in the Series: A rare example of a T&J cartoon which ends on a truce and a legitimately heartwarming Happy Ending for both of them. |
