one of my absolute favorites!

Fantastic!

It isn't all that great, actually. Really cheesy and very predicable of how certain scenes are gonna turn play out. However, I guess that's the charm of it all, because I would consider this one of my guilty pleasures.

This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows

. . . as the last refuge of the stinky skunks fleeing their wives and kids, so you'd think that the self-styled "Pepe Le Pew" (a.k.a., Henry the wayward dad and husband) would fit right in. But as Germany proved twice between 1914 and 1939, the French are total pushovers when it comes to any kind of invasion. True to form, one glimpse of Pepe proves enough to send an entire outpost of Frenchmen fleeing at the beginning of the Warner Bros. animated short, LITTLE BEAU PEPE. The main action then starts when the post's Left Behind female cat rubs the fresh whitewash off the bottom rung of a ladder with her back. Pepe erroneously concludes that this tainted kitty is a virginal skunk, opening another episode in his serial stalking career. Sensing a possible B.O. problem, Pepe next sprays himself with an ultra-smelly cocktail made from an entire shelf of exotic perfumes, which he's mixed together. A stray feline pheromone heats up the previously frigid kitty. As soon as the tables are turned, Pepe flees his prey-turned-pursuer, showing that his true stripes are Yellow.

Pepe Le Pew is not my favourite Looney Tunes character, but he is an entertaining one and also one that I appreciate much more than I did as a 10-year child 10 years ago. For me, For Scent-imental Reasons is Pepe's best cartoon, but Little Beau Pepe is still great. The animation is done in an elegant and beautifully-coloured style, one of the better-looking Pepe cartoons for me. The music is full of character and has a wonderful sense of irony and lush affection that suits Pepe and Looney Tunes cartoons so well. The writing has wit and that delicious self-irony that is an essential part of Pepe's character. The gags are just as clever and well timed, the ending is particularly great. The story is simple but effective in that regard, and is very crisply paced. Pepe and Penelope are very easy to like sort of characters, and Mel Blanc's vocals are superb.In conclusion, lots of fun. 9/10 Bethany Cox

The whole premise of the Pepe Le Pew cartoons is based on a whopping bit of irony-a French skunk styling himself as "the great lover" (think Charles Boyer squared) but, for reasons obvious to everyone save himself, he finds it difficult to get a date on Saturday nights. Like a great many would-be Lotharios, when the tables turn, Pepe turns chicken and runs. A very funny cartoon, with a joke that will be particularly enjoyable for horse racing fans, at least older ones anyway. One party-pooper note: by law (unless it's been changed) French nationals cannot join the French Foreign Legion, which, given the name, should be stunningly obvious. Well worth tracking down. Recommended.

Please don't sue if your kid reads this and cries.Though "The Cats Bah" took first place for Most Stylishly Done PLP (Pepe Le Pew) Cartoon, I have to give this one honorary mention, because of the styling of the Sahara Desert, the oasis, and the tent with the many purple and pink throw pillows and lace curtains (I can still see it when I shut my eyes!)Anyway...Like I said about "Scent Of The Matterhorn", "Two Scents Worth"...well, pretty much all 17 of the Jones-directed Pepe Le Pew cartoons (except for "Dog Pounded, which was directed by Freleng, and "Odor of the Day", directed by Arthur Davis--and including the 1959 one directed by Jones' animator, Abe Levitow), this one just oozes a subtle (sometimes overt) sense of sex appeal that only WW-II era cartoons and "Three's Company" could measure up to, but never beat. The entire last part where Pepe carries his unconscious object of desire to a tent all the way out in an oasis decorated with what I had mentioned earlier and makes an aphrodisiac out of really strong perfumes that work too well, which sends Pepe racing across the desert while his aphrodisiac-affected Penelope pursues him (reminiscent of "For Scent-imental Reasons, BTW) unsettled me (at first) and Pepe's ending remark, "Why is it that whenever a man is captured by a woman, all he wish to do is get away?" was a little sexist, but true to life.9 stars out of ten.
