Daffy Duck in The Scarlet Pumpernickel

Here's the next entry in the "Top Five Daffy Duck Cartoons;"  The Scarlet Pumpernickel, again directed by Chuck Jones and released in 1950.  The fun part of this one is looking for the cameos by various Warner Bros. cartoon stars as Daffy Duck stars in the role he was born to play, the Scarlet Pumpernickel.  The cartoon is VERY loosely based on the novel, The Scarlet Pimpernel, set during the French Revolution.   It's a shame Pepe Le Pew does not appear, as his faux French accent would have been right at home.   Voted #31 in the "Top 50 Cartoons of All Time", enjoy The Scarlet Pumpernickel.
