That was after he was in and out of directing cartoons. And you can tell too, because a lot of Tashlin cartoons have cheesecake shots of women that focus on their legs.
Take it from a former high school goldbrick, it just isn’t worth the consequences, also if you’re wondering I did complete high school but because of the economy at the time I didn’t get a job so I could get a diploma
It's American slang; it comes from the swindle of painting a block of lead with gold paint and selling it to a gullible punter. The British term is 'swinging the lead'
At the start, why did the guy playing the bugle blow it right in Snafu's ear? Did he have some sort of grudge against Snafu or something? That seemed to be what drove Snafu to goof off which led to his death later on.
Probably a metaphor for how Snafu regarded any summons to work. Well really, it's what the viewer makes of it, but that's one reasonable way to look at it.
@@ballasog Yeah, this was likely from Snafu's point of view. In reality, the bugle guy likely was a good distance away but Snafu simply didn't want to get up so early to train in a rain storm......
