Hilarious!, 8 May 1999
Author: BKeaton from Santa Monica, Calif.

One of the funniest of the Frank Tashlin cartoons -- Porky Pig and Daffy Duck try to skip out on an overpriced hotel stay! The Seinfeldian immorality of "Porky Pig's Feat" is quite surprising for 1943, a time when cartoons were frequently used to illustrate didactic military and patriotic themes.
