The Hollywood Bowl

The Hollywood Bowl (1950) is a classic MGM Tom and Jerry short you can watch online on iFILM, directed by William Hanna and Joseph Barbera. Runtime: eight minutes.

Tom takes the podium at the Hollywood Bowl as guest conductor of a full symphony orchestra. The audience applauds. Then Jerry crawls out of his hole, picks up a baton, and plants himself at the front of the stage. Tom's attempts to remove the mouse mid-performance go as badly as expected — swipes miss, Jerry resurfaces, the orchestra keeps playing. A tight and funny showcase of the pair at their most theatrical, with real classical music running underneath the chaos. Stream it on iFILM.
